Any IRON BUTT winners ride a Sporty?
There's a long run called the IRON BUTT or something just like that. Im still looking further into it. And its like 800 miles or something in one day. And at the end you get a pin or whatever saying you completeled the IRON BUTT Run. Just curious if anyone with a sportster has tried to go the length?

I believe they actually have a "Iron Butts Association" now, and not sure of the various rides they do, but in the old days an Iron Butt Ride was 1,000 miles or more in 24 hours or less.
First one I ever did was back in the mid 1970's on a solid frame 1949 Panhead chopper.
One of the newer rubber mounted Sportsters feels like a 'feather bed' compared to riding that thing.
