I sold my 1200 sportie back in November and traded up to a road king. It's a very comfortable bike for long trips. I did about 350 miles one day a few months ago to go to a funeral. Damn I miss my sportie. Fast as a rocket ship and nimble as fighter.......

 

There ya go...I'll never miss mine because I'll always have one. Find a used one and add it back into the fold.

 

Ya I want a bigger bike for the road as well, but I'm keeping the Sporty for sure.

 

dont see the point in having 2 harleys, why not get a yamaha or something?

 

I wouldn't buy a Yamaha for the same reason I wouldn't buy a Honda car. Americans need to buy as much American made products as possible. I understand that some companies assemble in America, but I would rather buy made in America by an American company.

Sportsters are great. Some day I may add a Road King.

 

I love the Sporty for around town, but I'd like the extra weight/comfort for longer road trips....not sure what that has to do with wanting a Yamaha. I'd like a V-Rod as well for other reasons, and may get that too in a few years. The more the merrier, I'll only own a Harley in one version or the other.

 

what!!!!

 

there are different bikes for riding styles. Sportys, dynas, baggers, touring etc...

Why Yamaha? Lol

 

To stir the pot I would imagine.
