I've got an 08 1200R, I picked it up last June with only 4000 miles on it. The paint looks even better in person.. I just installed a set of the Harley leather locking detachable saddle bags over the weekend. It would be nice if the weather in Michigan would cooperate so I can get out and ride.

Nice looking bike Mike! Would have owned one except no ABS available for it.

Looks like it's the 4.5 gal tank on your 1200R, no?

Lots of days I wish I still had my '06. One of the most fun bikes to ride in 48 years. The reality is needed to stretch out more and for me I couldn't change it from being arguably the "sportiest" of the Sportsters.
