One of my favourite colours on a bike.  Really really nice.  Now do your tiger!
Is it really an adventure bike if its wheels never see dirt?

What is it? The engine looks exactly like a Harley, but everything else is nothing like any Harley I've ever seen. Do they ship different Harleys overseas?

Great paint job, I'll say that!
Mostly commuting around town on the Steamer these days.

HD Sportster XR1200. Probably the best handling Harley there is out there. I took one out for a test ride. It really is a fun bike to ride. I'd own the XR1200X (upgraded suspension and brakes) any day of the week.

The XR started being sold in Europe and then by popular demand was also sold in the States. You can probably find one at your local HD dealer.

Do you have the manufacturer and paint code for us? I see it is a colour favoured by many vintage hot rods, lovely colour :D

My local dealer has NEVER had one like that on the floor. I've looked. *sigh*

As far as my own personal tastes go, that's probably the only HD i'd buy right now.

i'd probably buy the XRX over a Bonneville and given how much i like the Bonnies, that says a lot.

Great colour love the shine, just a waste on that bike, should have done it on the Tiger.

guys .......QUIT bashing the Sporty ......Malc shared it with us. It's a cool bike in its own regard  , nuff said .
If ya can't say something nice ...............don't bother posting

I test rode the XR1200X at the Thunder in the Rockies rally (Loveland, CO) last summer and it IS the best handling Harley I have ever ridden. I REALLY liked it for a HD, wasn't all that impressed with it as a motorcycle. It has a well sorted chassis and the brakes are great. Now "the motor company" needs to put a REAL motor on that chassis and they will have a fantastic bike.
I don't bash Harley bikes, I bash Harley engines and prices.

By the way, Sweet looking paint job. It looks real good on the XR.
