Hello from Ontario Canada....I joined last weekend but had some technical difficulties but here I am.
I took my course back in September and am looking at used sportsters for my first bike....any suggestions??? I am leaning towards a 1200c and flipping back and forth between new and used.......any tips would be greatly appreciated

Hello and welcome from the west coast of Canada, New Westminster, BC
Lots of great deals, take your time, be fussy. This time of year, in the great white north, you can steal one! Go for the 1200. Good luck and let me know how you make out.

thanks for the greeting blackndecker..........i am watching a few different dealerships in the area to see what they have onsite

i am not going to rush into anything.....a few weeks ago a friend of mine and i went to a demo ride and we spent the better part of 4 hrs there riding different bikes...i did learn that I like forward mounted controls over mid mounted ones

Hello and welcome to the forums from Georgia. To me it would depend on how used the used bike is and the price. If it's customized then that's even better.
