We all have different tastes. I bought an 01 Heritage classic new in 01. I liked the bike but sold it within one year and bought a BMW R 1150 RT. I kept that bike (an 02) till about 3 months ago and bought a Sportster (used 05) 1200 C and feel in my case I have finally found my bike. It ads a certain "fun factor" (attitude) that seemed to have been missing there for several years.
I love my sportster but after riding my moms roadking once.....Im ready to go up to a big twin....Im going to try and keep both for my different styles of riding cuz that old ironhead just wont make it on long trips
