finaly sold my bike to a fourm member , traded in a o7 883 sporty converted into a 1250 , its the same as the misssus bike besides the kit , ive always liked riding her bike as its so nimble and so much fun and i find it comphy, but after riding my s/bob with 130hp i get on this 1250 sporty and im impressed how quick it is , after the deal was done tonight i thought id take it out n see wat it can do , a sporty with a kit in it was desinged to wheelstand the sucker loves it , fliped it the 1st time but seemed to catch it {slight scratch on rear fender now} , and my feet are still killing me shit has also been cleaned outa my pants ive got it sused out now but now it just needs riding
any1 looking at a nshr 1250 kit id recomend it , its thundermax,se pipes, stock heads , i can imagine a set of cams and some headwork would give ya a easy 95+ hp
Congrats, nothing wrong with a sporty......
Love he sporty. Best and longest pedigree of all motorcycles worldwide. A classic in all variations.
I run the 1250 + Andrews N4 cams;...................snappy, goes hard and just a fun bike to ride!!
i did back in 1996 on a stock modified 1200 sporty @ the drags 3 pass only never the rode the bike before , 11.4 sec standing 1/4 mile time @ 117 mph , 15 years ago,
Good one Mick ,can have a lot of fun on a sporty I always thought the sporty was pretty quick of the mark until i bought the firebolt
