Are you asking to help a buying decision??? Looking to race one against the other or just curious.

My wife's 1200 will leave my ultra in the dirt. But I'm a pretty big boy and look cool on the ultra but on the 1200 it looks like a p_ss ant toting a biscuit

Well if both are bone stock they will be pretty close but the sporty will win. After stage one done on both the sporty will take the king off the line then the king will pass the sporty in the higher gears. At least thats what happens when I race my brother on my road king while he rides my sporty.

1/4 mile = Sportster, 1/4 continent = Road King

Speculation is dandy, but you need to look both ways and line them up. Report back with actual results.

I doubt that a touring bike will even hit 120.
