I have two Sporties: an 01 XLH and an 07 XLC. Does that make me both a carbuereted and fuel-injected sissy?
Speaking of Sissies, I went to a workshop/seminar last weekend at the local HD dealership. There were probably 15-20 guys in attendance, most of whom were dolled up in their finest HD frippery. It appeared that most of them owned "The Bigger, Non-Sissy Bikes". Guess which Sporty owner was the only one who rode his bike there. Maybe that's just a sign that, not only am I a sissy, but I don't even have enough sense to not ride in the freezing cold winter weather.

I have a 06 Softtail Standard and then we bought my wife a 2010 Sporty 48. 8 months after buying it for, we find out she is pregnant. She still rode till March of this year but since our son was born in June, she doesn't ride, so I ride it. Well to be honest I have been riding it since we bought it and I have a blast riding the 48. More so than the other one. LOL!

I've never been given crap for riding a sportster but I'm 5'8" tattooed and around 210lbs when I'm growing and 190lbs with abs when I lean out. I will say though that sometimes I would rather show someone my bike when they ask as opposed to saying 'sportster'. I wouldn't trade it for anything. Not sure if I'll ever sale it but that doesn't mean I won't buy something else one day!
