Yeh id take one of these anyday over a stupid sport bike.

Have you seen the Fxcwc Rocker c? Perfect plateform to mod and turn it into a custom chopper.

Nah it looks like a bloody hot bike though, how much do they go for?

**Sir_vtec** · 10-12-2009 09:44 AM

40-50k very expensive. all harleys are expensive but what u pay for is what u get, no disappointments from these bikes.

**bennjamin** · 10-12-2009 09:46 AM

the above bike is about $13k according to the ad. Looks nice....kind of a non-wanky not-so-expensive dues sex machina bike.

Id ride it

they are beautiful and also have a look at the bigger sized 1200 nightster. same body but bigger engine.

sportster Nightster in orange on black...

The rocker is awesome, the amount of money you could spend customising these harleys is amazing, so much customsing available...

the only thing im micnful of with the sportsters is they are quite small and constricted... depending on you size you'd need some severe forward control extensions!

Dreaming about owning one and just riding around Australia for the hell of it... Itd be so much fun.

What are the actual specs of the bike guys ?

Much more attractive than a overpriced revvy sports bike IMO

there you go Benny... it'd suit you too mate...

personally i'd go for the 1200... the 883 is a bit slow especially for a 260 kilo bike

thanks for that - the 1200 is basically a sports bike with its stance.

Still , far too heavy for what it is....are harley engines made of cast iron or something ? I wouldnt want my next bike to be any more than 180kg or so. (i like corners not speed)
