I saw one on I85 in SC about a month or so ago. Kind of cool 80's - ish look (IMO). My brother is the one that told me what it was from my description.

So, I've done a little research on them. Looks like aren't a super light bike but lighter than the 883 Sportster I'm riding now.

Anyway, one popped up locally for a very tempting price. Unfortunately, I would need to part with the Sportster if I wanted to buy one. Not all bad since I've been considering selling it anyway.

Does anybody own one or has anybody ridden one? Is it a good bike? Thoughts?

I've only ever heard good things about them and considered owning 1 myself.

Also it will blow away your sportster in just about every measurable metric.

My friend got one as a retirement gift, quick and a bullet proof engine that's been around forever.

Sportster? Whupass and not get out of first gear.
