Default How do I know id it's a standard sportster or a Hugger?

Looking at buying a sportster 883, but getting very little info... Other than actually measuring the seat height, how do I know if this bike is a hugger?

The hugger was discontinued in 2003.
It has buckhorn handlebars, lowered shocks & different paint colors, otherwise the same bike.

Buy at least a 1200, then you can ride with an outlaw club as they don't let anything less than 1000 cc's run with them.
