2014 Harley-Davidson Sportster 1200 Custom specifications, pictures, reviews and rating

Harley-Davidson's profilation of this bike
Leading the way for the 1200 Custom motorcycle is a fat, in-your-face front end. The thick triple clamp and beefy front tire wrapped around a 16-inch 5-spoke chrome cast wheel will not be denied. Take a look and you´ll see the true custom character of a Sportster® motorcycle, but just a little fatter and a little more custom.
