I almost bought Harley's Cafe Racer in 1979, but the clutch was so stiff, I almost needed two hands to operate it.

They've called it the best handling, best performing Harley of all time. I'd buy that sucker for sure. Fucking love it.

Even Europe gets the badass Harleys. WTF?

just like everything else, we get the shit they dont wanna sell over there in our nation.

I'm kinda considering an 883 myself for an around town cruising toy.

Any harley folks want to chime in and let me know if you think it looks like a good deal.... I' m seeing them from 7 grand and up online in states that are sunny year round.

$4900

i just love my harley. it's so fun to ride. as far as $4900 for this bike goes, i dunno. it's an '84...that's an antique.

def. snatch one up when you get the chance though. i don't think you'd regret it.

and i, too,

over that XR 1200! i'd totally trade the nightster for it.

I wouldn't trade the Buell...but I'd damn sure have it as a 2nd bike. I absolutely love it.

As for the Harley in question...Tater, I'd look for something newer if you can swing it. Something with a rubber mounted engine and FI. The Sporty's went rubber mount in 04 I believe.

that guy's body positioning is just terrible. I'd rock the bike though.

..Fuck yeah... Bike mags have mentioned handling and whatnot near levels of say a Super Duke... That gets my dick hard. Also, I've read of hints that Harley is going to bring it stateside...

As for that Harley? I wouldn't buy any Harley from the 70's or 80's... You can get something much newer for around the same cheddah.

Oh, and if you do, you'll have to change your AV.
