For some reason I just love sportsters. Have been looking for an HD and every time I look I always fall back to liking sportsters over every other bike. Am 52 years old and can buy any bike in the building. I do like old school bikes so maybe that is the reason. I don't know. Have ridden dirt bikes all my life with the occasional street but was always an old school Honda or Triumph. Am 6' tall so all my buddies tell me I need to get a bagger. They all ride Fatboys, Road Kings, Street Glides. But every time I look I gravitate right back to the new 1200C, Nightster, or 48. Is crazy I know so whats wrong with me?!

This is how it went for me with the 48. The only other bike I even remotely like is the nighttrain/blackline. But I was just drawn to the 48 it's a very unique looking harley in todays line up. It gets a ton of compliments, especially from guys that are old enough to remember the old knuckleheads driving around when they were younger. It rides rough and shakes and handles great. I love it!

I understand, I'm about an inch away from turning 60. I've always wanted a Sportster, bought mine last year.
I see it as a hot rod, way too much fun before I get too old to enjoy it. When that time comes, maybe I'll buy a big twin and putt on down the road. I hope that time doesn't come for quite awhile.
