I have personally thought the iron head was the best looking Engine they've ever made. And on the sportster, well it is the way a sportster should look. Tighten all of the nuts and bolts and expect it to leak a little oil and be hard starting some time. It's an old bike so don't expect modern performance but that sound!... Well it is truely unique and a classic. Once you do get it running the bigest problem you'll have is keeping the smile off your face.
