    I reckon if I had the space to have a sportster in the garage as well as my dyna then that'd be the one.

    Better looking than an XR1200 but with similar good handling and brakes.

    Good write-up; I dig the Roadster. Hopefully get to ride one soon. 

    If I had too much $$, my ideal garage of the current HD range would be one of these and a Street Glide for touring. I could really enjoy commuting and screaming around on the twisties with this thing, pending how far 12.5 litres could get me. Probably put on some slip-ons, new air filter and a slightly bigger headlight (styling choice). And it would be red; that colour rocks on the Roadster. Maybe consider moving the pegs forward too. But being I don't have crazy $$, I'm happy with my Fat Bob which is the best of both worlds. 

    Interesting to read the comments section of the article: I don't know why people who have no intention of buying a HD take it upon themselves to whinge the loudest about them. Maybe I can talk the government into funding a study into that...

    Hmmm ....

    I'm not so happy - with the capacity of my Dyna tank.

    It's something in the order of 340 ks ...

    But then again, I quite often 'want what I cant have' and 'have what I don't want' !
