    Tried one out at a demo ride . Power for days but found the riding position strange , to be nice about it . The sounds with a stock pipes anyway was also less than good but in all fairness I've heard some with after market pipes that sounded great . All in all it was a nice demo ride . Enjoy the bike , ride safe .

      Yeah it's very quiet especially for a v twin stock. With the two brothers exhaust it sounds like a monster. For me the riding position is fine except the seat doesn't have enough of a backstop to keep you from sliding back when hard on the throttle. The mid pegs also make the position better than the standard forward pegs.

    It’s retro-futuristic: it looks like what people in the 1970s thought Harleys in the future would look like. I’m not into Harleys myself, but I’ve always liked the look of these.

      My wife was the same way, she said the pics didn't make it look good, but in person it looked way better.

    I have rhe honda rebel 1100 and so many people asking me "oh is that a harley sporter?" And I just saw this vid and it does look similar. The buttons, dash, build, looks similar except mine is a parallel twin. I perfer v twin since the engine sounds way better

      I've not rode a rebel 1100 yet, but they look and seem like a good bike. I love me a good twin though 😏

      I've never got to experience any of those bikes, but they must've sounded great 👍

    It's just so small lol

      It is a small bike. Actually smaller than I expected, looks very small under people above 6 feet kind of. But man it's fun.

      @@bikerbeliever8169 yeah I thought my fat bob looked small lol. I kinda like the nightster but I wish it had the same engine size as the Sportster s.

      Ha the fat bob is a great bike, totally different feel and motor, steel good tho. Yeah I would love the 1250 in the nightster, the 975 was fun but not even close to the same torque and power of that 1250. That 1250 rev max is a fun motor.
