Re: The HD Sportster
Ive been pondering buying a new bike next season, something in the $5-7k range. I havent considered an HD before but I must admit for $6595 the sportster 883 has some pretty nice features. (Belt drive, fuel injection, self adjusting valves, etc.) But ive heard people say that the sportster is top h...

Yep, that will be a tough decision trying to decide between the two. Of course, you know what MY preference would be... :wink: :) The lack of foot room on the heel-toe shifter side is a common complaint. There is an aftermarket fix available that replaces the rear shift lever with a longer one. Som...

2007 Harley Fat Boy
I was able to go the Harley Ride days at the dealership here in Gatineau yesterday. I only had time for 1 ride so I had narrowed it down to the Street Bob or the Fat Boy (both are bikes that appeal to me in terms of looks - I've actually wanted a Fat Boy since I was 16.).
