My brother had a 1200 low boy. It was that bike mainly due to his vertically challanged condition. It fit him.
Stock it was good enough for him, He had owned a T100, but it was even too tall for him and the BMW even taller!

It does however sound a bit like your buddy has been dissing the TBA. So what if you have to spin it to get a jump start. We all know these bike like a high rev and that is what you have to do.
I love a good 80s FXR! and certain other HDs, like was mentioned here already. Its mainly the posers who get all arrogant and snub anything that is not a HD. REAL MOTORCYCLEIST dont care what you ride and If any HD guy is worth anything, they know that TRIUMPH IS an older company AND if it were not for TRIUMPH kicking HDs a$$ with the BONNEVILLE, the Sporty would have never been created.

Good luck,
(dont forget to shell out an extra grand for the stage 2 and new pipes, and kuri air charger)
