Harley-Davidson Sportster description
Still under extended warranty. The only upgrade is a K+N air filter. I rode this a bunch. The only trouble I had was the compensator bolt backing out shortly after purchasing new. Of course it was repaired and a new primary cover installed. The wheels have scratches where a sloppy (me) mechanic let the tire tool slip. I change my own, I don't recommend HD tires, they grip well but don't last very long. It just passed WV inspection so the tires and brake pads are good. I rode this five summers and some clear winter days. It was a lot of fun but now is time to let it go to another rider. All oils and engine filter get changed by me every 3K miles. It is a hoot to ride and performs well beyond my capabilities. I scare myself while riding the twisty roads. It accelerates quicker than normal Sportsters so hang on tight! The brakes will stop you quicker than you think. The 2011/2012 model years are identical except for tire brands. They have the upgraded tunable suspension that the 2009/2010 models don't have. I have it set almost to the stiffest setting. This bike is great on curvy roads and through town. On the straight highways it is a bit boring but purrs right along smoothly around 85MPH. The magazine reviews say it will do 130MPH but I lack the cajones to try. I might deliver it after the payment clears. I probably can beat the shipper's price. By the way, it no longer gets to stay in the house. The visit was for photos only.

Airhawk Introduces DS Comfort Seating System For Dual Sport Bikes, Bikes With Narrow Seats
Fri, 16 May 2014Airhawk, Inc., has introduced the DS Comfort Seating System, a cushion designed specifically for motorcyclists who ride dual sport bikes or bikes with narrower seats. Features of the DS cushion include a narrow front to match the seat profile of most dual sport/adventure bikes and bikes with narrow seats. A tapered-down front minimizes unwanted pressure on the scrotum, and a heavy-duty hold-down strap system ensures a secure fit to the bike. The DS also works well with narrow customized or aftermarket seats that have been installed for the purpose of getting the rider lower to the ground.
Harley-Davidson Forty-Eight and Roller Derby? [Video]
Thu, 10 Jun 2010Canadian publication Cycle Canada had some fun on a photoshoot for its review of the Harley-Davidson Forty-Eight for the July issue. As Pete wrote in our own review, the Harley-Davidson Sportster Forty-Eight has a rugged, bobber-inspired look with its chopped fender, chubby front tire and underslung mirrors. For the guys over at Cycle Canada, the Forty-Eight conjured up a rather odd image: roller derby.
