but it's a ha ha ha ha ha ha ha hardly... :idk: for now, i'll stick to my SB.

Bad itgirl, you are riding way too many hardleys. :lol:

Bad itgirl, you are riding way too many hardleys. :lol: :lol: i just can't help myself... Doesnt your 636 do that? :scratch: well yeah, that's a given. i wasn't expecting it from a harley though. it kinda puts my street rod to shame.

its ugly.

i think the all black looks badass. not your normal, everyday chrome dildo. this one looks sinister.

i think the all black looks badass. not your normal, everyday chrome dildo. this one looks sinister. Im all about the all black bikes. I dont care what it is, a black bike in any style looks badass!

i'm also a bit infatuated with the new 08 Rocker C. would like to see one of those in person.

:iagree: kinda shiny. i like the floating passenger pillion though.

i'm also a bit infatuated with the new 08 Rocker C. would like to see one of those in person. it kinda looks like small chopper, to me anyway. but that nightster i like.:thumbs:

The only Sporster I'd ride right thar.

well yeah, that's a given. i wasn't expecting it from a harley though. it kinda puts my street rod to shame. but isnt the sportster waaay lighter than your street rod?

but isnt the sportster waaay lighter than your street rod? yeah, most likely. you got a point there.

:iagree: kinda shiny. i like the floating passenger pillion though. It kind of looks like it deserves a under tail exhaust..... And some rear sets....:skep:

My uncle has a Night Train that has made me want a cruiser I love the drag bars on it keeps me leaning forward. Well want that one but will probably go with custom chopper anyway. I'll make Gas Man happy. I'm looking at the Big Dog K9 or American Ironhorse LSC

That (nighster) looks like one of the very few harleys I'd consider riding.

If you like black, this bike is :drool: http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa198/fpzx10/07_roadstarwarrior_blk_1_7cb6830a.jpg

Yeah the 1200 version of the wife's bike.

guess who's making the call tomorrow about tradin' the street rod for a nightster....ME! hopefully it all comes together. stay tuned... I don't think I would do that... but to each their own!!

I don't think I would do that... but to each their own!! really? well alot of the reason is that the street rod is just so cumbersome (i know...it's a harley). the nightster is so much more manageable. i can flat-foot it, and it saves about 100 lbs. it has plenty of power, i'll just be losing that sportbikeish quality that the street rod has. i never thought i'd say this, but i think the street rod is too much bike for me. i need something a bit smaller, lighter. i always worry about dropping the street rod, soon i'll will that bad energy on myself. i just wanna be proactive instead of reactive. besides...i think the nightster is badass looking!

OIC... didn't know you felt that way about the streetrod. I was just looking at its aftermarket and horsepower potential. Like the link I sent ya for aftermarket mapping and exhaust. But I understand about the size thing. My wife's sporty is very nimble for a Harley. I don't think I would push the small tires too hard but it has the ground clearance. The nightster is a nice bike. I like how they bobbed the rear fender, went to frog eye/fender strut side tail lights with intergrated turns. The fork tube covers are coming back in style and add that bobber look to it. Plus the lack of chrome makes it a breeze to clean. Of coarse, that is with the understanding that anything black needs alot of regular cleaning. But at least it don't have black and alot of polished billet. (like my chop is) The 2007 Sporty's with FI (first year on the sporty) create about 17% more power than previous years. Just as a side note if you are considering any used/carbed models.

guess who's making the call tomorrow about tradin' the street rod for a nightster....ME! hopefully it all comes together. stay tuned... You're making me sick right now. :puke:

it's official. tomorrow i take the street rod down to laugerman's to trade even up on a 2008 all black nightster. the nightster isn't here yet though. it will be in the 1st week of august. now all i gotta do is wait... marko, feel free to :puke: some more... :lol:

why? lol

if the damn street rod didn't weigh so much i'd keep it. even stepping up my fitness regimen doesn't make maneuvering that thing any easier. :lol: i am woman enough to admit the street rod is too much bike for me. it was great while it lasted though. i'm glad i had the experience. it's a beautiful bike too.

Ah ok, as I never rode one I have no clue what it weighs or how it rides. Sounds like a responsible move tho :dthumb:

Well, at least you get to be a cool biker for a couple weeks, while you are on you Kawi, then you go back to a HD... :leaving: :lol: j/k... congrats and enjoy!

The VRSCR is a sweet bike but so is the Nightster, and you make good points about its virtues. Most importantly it delivers a major grin, and in the end, this is what matters most.

Keep us advised...
