Default Sportster??

I've seen a lot of variations on the Sportster and I really dig the Cafe Sportys that guys are building, but check this monster out:

I'd be proud to ride that bike, but it needs drag bars.

Sorry! I do not like it. It looks like a dual sport bike. UGLY!

it's not really a cafe, it's more street tracker than anything. it's got upright dirt track style bars (no clips) dirt track inspired rear end. bike is just nasty that's what it is!

Damn, now I have to go change my shorts! That is effing sweet. Unfortunately, my Nightster saw the video, and now it is hiding under its cover in shame...

I saw that bike in the magazine and I was amazed at the amount of work that went into that bike. Dual carb on the left side, that tank just flows with the bike like nothing I have ever seen. If you look closely, you can see all the work that went into just rerouting the clutch cable into the primary cover. Maybe H-D should look into some new engineers.

Well now we have the XR1200, Maybe someone at MoCo got a glimpse of this bike a few years ago and they rushed to produce the XR before they got this Mule done?
