Borrowed an 883 Sportster . . .

[z-weiser]

. . . . .and i quite like it!

It's nice and comfy once you get the hand of the riding position, it's got enough oomph for me - but i can see why people used to sportsbikes or who simply need 200bhp could get frustrated!

the handling is fine once you figure out how to ride it (i.e. not like a vara!)

and the best bit is simply riding along thinking - oh yeah i'm on a harley!



. . .but it does make me look like donkey kong!

why can't they make proper man sized bikes?????????????

Gt to be honest Zed the Harley is always one bike that turns my head when it goes chuggin by the engine sound is stunning, one day I would love one but strictly for a summers day havin a cruise
Mate has just sold his GSX1400 to get a Road King after doin Route 66 last year it awesome but I wouldnt want to clean it if it rains Sounds the biz to me, plenty dont like them and plenty do, the only thing I couldnt do is dress like some ex hells angel wannabe

There is one really big advantage in borrowing an 883 - yes you can give it back .......
Sorry couldnt resist that one!
