I've ridden a few Sportsters ... like 'em a lot and is the only Harley I could actually see myself owning ... an 883 Iron would be my preferred choice ... though the Super Low is nice as well.

The Motor Company does make a lot of great Bikes, but as mentioned by previous poster, too big and heavy for my needs ...

and have always felt the the LS650 has a LOT of the same "charcter" as the Sportster and is one of it's attributes that will always endear the little Thumper to me! Cool

Before you diagnose yourself with depression or low self-esteem, first make sure you are not, in fact, just surrounded by arseholes!

I recently saw a "Sturgis" in a few pics and a little voice at the back of my head was whispering evil things...

"buy one... get one... find one... ride one..."

Evil, eeevil things... Wink

I have to say, the Sturgis looks a lot like the Savage the way I have redecorate her

I am beginning to think the Savage mimicks the Dyna a lot more than the Sportster...

EDIT : fixed the link Wink

I think the problem has to do with Harley's marketing...
They make a conscious choice to sell to several niche markets...
Putting themselves in a separate market than other motorcycles... (they have to,... because they aren't really competitive otherwise)...

They have the these markets cornered...
-Patriot/ thugs (Buy American)... which created with the anti-riceburner sentiment...
-Rich yuppie snob, wannabees... the couture fashion riders...(who have turned Harley dealerships into salons)...
-women,... often not very experienced, and looking to prove something......

Sounds like the Raiders fan market Grin
