You couldnt have said it any better. I to have rode many harleys all great bikes. But i gotta tell ya. Out of all of them i love my sporty the best. Its sleek and sexy fast and loud. So much fun on this bike
Yep ... had them all too. I just picked up a 06 1200 Sportster low for 3k with 17k on it. I'm changing the pipes and the seat and cleaning it up for some two wheel fun and I'm 68, never too old for a Harley.
You’re right sir! It’s a great entry-level bike and a source of daily relief. An old man once told me: go buy yourself a bike while you’re still young (we were talking in front of his shiny custom XL1200 chopper)
I had an 883 that I customized and would still have it today if some asshole hadn't T-boned me at an intersection it was totaled. I'm currently looking for a 1200 to replace it.
Im a new rider, my friend has a Harley sportster 1200 and he lets me ride it. I thought it was cool but i just rode an Indian scout and it blew my mind. Again I am new but I think that the scout is a better bike and inspires confidence in my riding. The whole bike doesnt shake at a stoplight and the shifts arent audible from a block away. He is now contemplating trading in his Harley after riding the Scout aswell.
It is a bit like comparing apples to oranges. The Indian Scout is a modern design. The Sportster, most Harleys, and I think most Indians have a more traditional engine design.
Sure but that’s an excuse I have been hearing about Harley’s as an excuse of why it rattles and clunks. It’s like Tesla’s with fitment gaps everywhere, everyone just says oh it’s because it’s a tesla. I feel as a new rider I’m looking for some sort of refinement even from entry level cruisers in a company’s lineup.
Some people love that muted feel and some love the rawness of the vibrations that makes the bike come to life and to each is own. They make so many motorcycles that there is something for everyone. The most important thing is to get out there and ride.
It’s not refinement it’s a lack of character. Harley patent their engine tones and vibration cause it’s the feel that makes you love it. Why do you think every manufacturer with a cruiser copies Harley, especially Indian? It’s because they got it right. I do like some of the Indian’s, like the FTR. I just am not a fan of the bikes they copied from Harley.
@@theinfinitryda perhaps you are right, again, this is from me a new rider who has ridden a total of 5 bikes briefly. I am planning on going to a harley dealership this weekend to broadened my mind.
X's on you're visor bruh? You looking at that the whole time you ride or did you find some way to make them transparent to look through...cause if you did I'd like to know how lol
@@theinfinitryda Loving it so far. Unfortunately I’ve only been able to ride it about 150 miles so I don’t have much experience on it yet. It’s got short shots on it and they’re loud which is awesome! Neighbors hate me for it but oh well lol.
I think you’re referring to the Sportster S. It’s a video on my channel about it. It’s a different beast. It’s fast, fun and refined. It’s lacks some of the character of the EVO motor but it has a different purpose.
Five reason to buy a sportster The first is the indigenous only have five ways to act lie beg steal communicate screw another over The second is the rainbow does not fit over sport star badgers The third is they steal an image then sell it back and call it a sports er rating The fourth is there still unsure of a motors cycle so buy it to copy The fifth is the indigenous.needed to expand it out so they would at least gain one of the ways but only to realise the harley davidson.is never for sale so why don't they be a sport and starry of somewhere else AFFA angels never die HMS nffn sonny

Totally agree with your assessment. Especially with the EVO motor. Bullet proof and reliable! And yes, therapy. The best kind. Wind therapy! 🌬 🏍

Nice. Lol. Can’t go wrong with a sportster
Dude, ur so positive😂 I'm grabbing a sportser, thank you😂😂😂
I had an 883 that I customized and would still have it today if some asshole hadn't T-boned me at an intersection it was totaled. I'm currently looking for a 1200 to replace it.
I wish I hadn't listened to my clueless mates and bought a sportster year's ago best bike I have ever owned
I had a Sportster 1000, years ago. It was fun to ride and sounded good with drag pipes.
Is that an 883 with bigger heads?
Just got my 2016 Superlow 1200 with 1,000 kilometres for only 8K Canadian. Feels like I stole it. 🤤 I love it.
👍🏼 enjoy it. Let me know your thoughts after owning it for a while.
BROOOO!! I just got a 07 sportster! Got my permit and ready to ride 😎 I also live in a nice rural area. So excited to poop around in my bike.
Nice. Congrats
Just bought me a 48 the other day, I love it!!
I will never own a Harley Davidson...But I did enjoy listening to your perspectives and your opinions...
Appreciate it.
Great video. Your comments while filming are always funny and informative. One of the best channels, keep up the excellent content.
Thank you
Yes I want a sporty too. I'll get one, one day. I do have a V-ROD though. Peace..
Hell yeah. I love my VRod. What year is yours
Anyone else catch that " the army goes rolling along"?
Hey dude, you customized one of the best looking sporter I have ever seen out there. Did you lowering the bike at all ?
No I lifted it a little

Really leaning towards getting this model the more I keep watching videos about it haha
It’s a good choice. I love this bike
@@MrMountain707 Did you ride them both? I would take the Bolt over the 883 but I think I'd probably take the 1200 Sportster over the Bolt..
Whats that windshield you have on there its bad ass!!!!!
The Memphis Shades fairing
Are you using “liner or wide” settings on the camera that’s on your helmet?
Wide
Great vídeo! greetings from Brazil

That’s a good bike as well. How you liking it?
