QUOTE FROM MOTORCYCLE NEWS HERE IN ENGLAND "HARLEYDAVIDSON MIGHTHAVE ALREADY REVEALED THEIR RANGE FOR 2007 BUT ITS BEEN KEEPING BACK A SUPRISE IN THE FORM OF THIS NEW SPORTSTER. SPIIED IN AMERICA, DAYS BBEFORE ITS OFFICIAL LAUNCH IN COLONGNE THE BIKE FEATURES A NEW ENGINE AND FAR HIGHER SPEC THAN CONVENTIONAL HAARLEYS PLUS A TOTALLY NEW LOOK.
   RUMOURS IN AMERICA SUGGEST THE SPORTY IS TO GET A NEW WATER COOLED ENGINE AND WHILE ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO TELL FROM THIS PIC WHETHER THIS IS THE NEW MOTOR THE ENGINE CASES AND  HEADS ARE DIFFEREENT TO CURRENT HARLEY MOTORS. WHILE IT STILL HAS COOLING FINS THE JAPANESE CRUISERS HAVE SHOWN ITS POSSIBLE TO KEEP AN AIR COOLED APPEARANCE ON ENGINES THAT ARE ACTUALLY WATER COOLED.

That would be GREAT NEWS [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

I started with a Sportster and have had one on the side ever since.  To me it brings back the feelings I had when I first started riding, and I have learned a few tricks over time to get them to go plenty fast!!   [smiley=grin2.gif]

I 'spect I will always have one, the current is an 01, so its about time for a new one...
