Great bike to ride! I bought it last summer to commute to work and what a surprise for me. Very good quality, smooth engine with plenty of power. I get 42 to 48 mpg on city & local short freeway riding. I have added a sport windshield, Skull accents all over, tank bib, saddle bags, new exhaust, stage 1 air cleaner, fuel injection remapped. Has a lot of personality and I love riding it everyday. Sold my Kawasaki Sportbike for this Harley and have no regrets. Glad to have an all steel bike with all that bottom end power. I donĀ“t need a big Harley, like the size of my Sportster. Love the 4.5 gal tank and dual disks up front. Too bad HD stopped making this model, big mistake.
