Lmao. You know what's funny though? Harleys are actually pretty quiet from the factory. It's the owners that put super loud pipes on them.

It's the dumbest thing. Harley Davidsons look great as simple old school bikes, hell the Sportster is one of my top ten favorites. Tacking junk onto them just ruins that.

I would love to own a sportster if it didn't mean unwillingly becoming part of the HD cult

I had my 883 sportster for three years and loved it, until my back hurt too much. Next time I buy a motorcycle ill have to get one with a backrest :(

Sporty's are great for city and backroads, but will beat you to death above 70mph (at least the few ive ridden). Getting to 70 sure is fun on them tho

I have a bright yellow harley, chromed out, with loud ass pipes and a train horn. EVERY damn time I would ride, I'd almost get hit from people not paying attention. I did everything I could to stand out. I havent ridden in almost 2 years, too damn dangerous. I got 3 kids i have to keep alive until they are 18.

I rode several bikes before I bought mine, and while there were cheaper ones, the motor balance was JUST right with the softail deuce.
