Default RE: Donny Petersen on the Sportster

I rode sportys from 1958 until 1971, yesterday I sat on a nighster at the shop, thinking here, just thinking, but my wife saw the gleam come into my eye, but my Dyna would have to go..not sure I want one that bad..tried to get her on it, as she rode ironheads, but she refused because, she said, you would be out on it all the time.

I bought my 1200 C because Iwanted a smaller bike. What a bonus I got to find out I also bought one hell of a "kick ***" bike.

I own a Sportster and a Softail Custom. The Sportster is quick and agile, but the Softail is much more comfortable.
