I bough mine last year, i had a sportsbike but wanted a cruiser. Had a few test rides, one on a Triumph Thunderbird and one on a Sportster 1200 Custom, i ended up with the sportster for its all round handling etc. Very nice bike and im very pleased with it, carnt say more than that, and it cost me less on insurance and fuel to run.
i rode a 1200 sportster blacked out with vance hines drag pipes and the screamin eagle intake and heads and o my god it was sick i was rollin throu town runnin idk 45 and layed down on it and god its cut the back tire loose and hooked up and daym iz foing a 100 in a short second
won second place with my 08 1200 c at bike show will be doing alot more work its almost ready 1st place only, then i will post video its black and im going with the willy g theme
well it all depends. it definitely has enough power and torque. it would be nice if i had a little more leg room on it. I am able to sit on the back seat and cruise if i want though. my only real complaint with it is the 5th gear feels a little too small, i feel like it needs a 6th
@ACDCrockKINGZ hey thanks man, i went and tried one out and it's pretty good size. I'm thinking of getting a dyna now though . they're just so damn awesome (so are sportsters)

I own a 95 XL 1200 Sportster with Stage 3 Mods.
Dynamometer data is: 73 bhp and 68 ft/ lb. torque @ 6000 rpm.
For those that call my bike a "girls bike" ?
Do the HP/Weight ratio math.Who is driving a girls bike and who is driving a TANK ?
