 I have a wide variety of taste too and I like the looks of that bike man. Congrats!. I see they make an XR 750 replica we cant get either that actually works well too.

The fact that Harley makes a bike called a "sportster" shows that they at least have a sense of humor. Grin

See now, I have always kinda liked the V-rod and the various "sport" versions of it. Would definitely be an "addition" only, not a replacement. Unless I was thinking of replacing my current power-cruiser... But that would be hard to do as it handles/brakes etc sooooo much better than anything I have ridden from HD.

I can already see a set of Showa/Ohlin's USD forks on it with custom cnc'd triples.  Plus a set of dragbars.  Ditch the signals (as well as reflectors please!) and...

oh wait... have you had a chance to even ride it yet?  Mod'ing can be a bad affliction to have to be honest.

A set of USD's on a Bobber?!?!?!?  Blastphemy.  I like the regular forks on the bike and will keep 'em thank-you-very-much.  Signals are staying on the bike, but the reflectors are going to go away.

Yes I've ridden it and it runs/rides fine for what it is. 

And that's just the point:  It's fine as it is (minus the pipes of course and some mods to increase ridability (fork oil, rear shocks, comfy-er seat, etc.)).

If I rip this sucker apart just for mods....  And leave myself w/o a bike to ride (like I have been for the last 8 months now)....well, that'd just be dumb.

Nice, like the color scheme! That rear end with the tail light in blinker combo rocks.
