    I have a mark 6 I'm considering parting with if you're interested.

    Well, sold off the Road King as my long distance riding days are behind me but I still wanted something fun to run around on or day rides. 2017 Sportster Roadster that was done as a build-off competition by the dealer. Stage 1 performance work (intake, exhaust, plug wires, tuner), cafe style seat/cowl. I added the swing arm bag to carry extra gloves, glasses and jacket liner. Haven't stopped grinning-light, nmble and fast enough .

    Got some slightly higher bars and different grips on order. 940 miles on it.

    Nice . Shades of the old XR900 iron head sporty.

    When I moved here in ‘84 I had a ‘83 XR1000 and a ‘64 DuoGlide. Sold the DG shortly after but kept the XR for 5 more years, that was a fun ride. Was out most of today-pure joy-and after a meeting in the morning I plan on running up through the foothills, at least until Thursday it’s a good week to be off.

    Does the steering feel lighter to you?

    Have put 0 miles on it yet, but I was able to turn tighter when testing it on dry pavement. And was able to back into my gravel area in 2 wheel low

    Mainly looking to reduce wear on my CV shafts/joints, and if I put a locker in the front I can unlock one to allow some differentiation
