    I finally got my hands on one of the new Harley Davidson Sportster S 1250 and it was pretty cool! Over all I liked many of the HD Sportster S styling cues, but there are a few items that would need to be addressed before I would consider purchasing one. The issues may not be issues, I only rode the bike for a little bit. If you can get to the dealer to try one, I encourage you to do so!
    If you have taken a ride on one of the Sportster S rigs, what was your review thoughts? Leave a comment below and let me know.
    HUGE shout out to HD of Rochester NH! www.rochesterharley.com
    Remember it don't matter what you riden' - as long as you riden' 👊

    *belly pan. Not a skid plate. Traditionally used to catch oil while on race tracks. Probably a necessary feature on a Harley.

    Driven it before. Nice bike. My only complain is that the handles are too low. Might be uncomfortable on long distances. Air resistance is quite high as well.

    Like you said "SPORT-STER" why do they keep choking the model out on hp? There's a huge market of aging sportbike riders (myself incuded) that want to wean themselves off the jockey riding position but still want the hp.
    The case can clearly handle 150hp because they're doing it with the Pan America. Paying an extra $1500-$7000 for the stage kits on a new bike is dumb imo and you still come up short in hp for the group they're targeting. It's a beautiful bike and I'd buy one immediately if it left the showroom with the power I expect.

      I was told it was for weight to HP ratio but there's only 40lb difference between them
      I might've got one, but that forever reveal made me lose all interest......I doubt I could have more fun on SS than my vrod

    • @tinman3586
      @tinman3586 2 роки тому +1

      The idea behind the fat tires is to keep the bike more stable and give you a smoother ride at heigher speeds. Not sure what you're complaining about on the suspension.

    Not much effort cosmetically on the left side of the bike, too much cheap looking plastic tubes, radiator etc. Hardly any suspension travel, single disc on a performance bike not a good idea. Seems a slightly rushed out model.
