My cousin just bought the new Nightster and, though he's been riding for years, he'd been doing it sans license so I picked up his bike. When I first saw pics of that bike, I must say, I'd felt a twinge of regret about my Speedy. It sure is pretty. Of course I'd read that old sporties shook like the devil but that had been fixed.

Well, if this is better, man, it's amazing anyone with more than 1,000 miles on a sportster has any teeth. Now I know why they call 'em Milwaukee Vibrators. It's also wee. His has forward controls, but a bit tight for me. And, in person, my speedy is WAY pertier. Oh, and that while the sticker is about a G different, his out the door was almost 4 grand more than I paid.

That 4 grand I good have my bike gold plated. I don't think I will, but it's an option.
