Smile Blah blah

Just thought I would flap my jaw a little. I just bought my 1200 roadster last week. I rode a few other bikes before diciding to buy it. I tride the iron and nightster and herigtage. It didnt seem like the big twin had anymore power then the sportys had. maybe it its the weight to power ratio. I like the roadster witch mine has foward controls, and handled better. I like crusing and seemed like the roadster was meant for mine. I can lay her into corners and then lay back on the straight stretches. I never owned a Harley untill now. A friend told me I would like the bigger bike onced I got used to them. I think the rual area I live in the roadster is perfect for me. I got alot of questions on upgardes I want to do but right now I am content just having a bike to ride, I went all year without after selling my indro last winter. Use to have a Honda 750.

I really liked the Roadster when it came out. It is a very nice bike. I hope that you get many years of trouble free riding out of your bike. Hey man, Welcome aboard and ride safe!

You definitely got the right bike. I bought mine a year and a half ago, and I look around at other rides, but I can't find anything that matches it.

I love my 06 roadster. Its my first bike but I am enjoying it. I just put the forwards on mine yesterday along with many other goodies and cant wait to give it a spin.

Good luck with the bike.
