Love this new take on the HD Sporty

The HD 48

Here's a video

Love the unswung mirrors, drag bars, forward controls and the OH SO COOL big front tire.

Cool bike but is that coming to the US? I like the forward controls and drag bars but I can do without that tank. I've never liked the shape of the sporty tanks the the new sporty lows are ok.

One of them was blowing smoke at 1:05..

I really like the smoke pouring out of the bike at 1:06 and 1:21.

Quality engineering.

Yeah I had to fix the link... somehow got the UK version... all good now. My dealer will have one in about 2 weeks. I bet it sells fast!
