Default So I was browsing HD.com today...
And I saw that a sporty took 1st and 2nd place Best in Show at Daytona this year. A Street Glide took third.

Just thought that those who don't know would want to.

The Sportster is a damn good looking bike. The next closest to it is a Dyna, which is a big Sportster. Not surprised at all. Thanks for the info.

Yeah, you just gotta go there and right on the home page they have a picture viewer of their coverage of Daytona. The best in show pics are a little ways down. Pretty damn cool though, Sportster's gettin' some love.

I just checked it out. Very cool.
