Got to thinking about it today. If I didn't have a Sportster, I suppose I'd have a Softail or a bagger of some sort. Just curious what you guys/gals would pick to ride.

I rode a Sportster as my regular ride for 8 years. I bought my Road King in 1999 and haven't regretted it. WhileI kept the Sporty, it is really like having a second job just trying to ride it a bit to keep it in good running order. I've put 65k miles on the Road King since buying it. I've only put about 1500 miles on the Sporty in that time. I just did top end job ont the Sporty in January. I've only put about 380 break in miles on it so far.

A Fat Boy is what I have always wanted. I am puting money aside for it when I can, and some day I am going to get one. Just not willing to finance that much money when I have a 10 year old truck with 130,000 miles on it. Someday....

Honestly, If I didn't find mine, I'd be on a Shadow 1100.

Softtail would seem to be in order...

That or perhaps a Triumph.

Rode a Electra Glide today. It's my Sons. Could not wait to get off that thing. Ride was very good but hate all that chit in front of me!
