Harley's best sounding bike.
By (I am an Owner) on Aug 24, 2019Bought my 05 with the idea my wife would transition to it after learning to ride on a Rebel.
She likes her little Rebel and plans on keeping it a few years.
I'm secretly happy as Hell because I absolutely love this Sportster and want to keep it for myself. Lol
It looks really ... good sitting next to my Fatboy.
The Roadster is by far in my opinion the best Sportster ever!

2005 HD Sportster 1200-R
By (I am an Owner) on Sep 17, 2010Purchased it new . Very good value. Not a single problem. More than enough power & handles better than any HD I have ever ridden.
Do your maintenance & there is no doubt in my mind it will last better than anything else around.

Roadster works for me
By (I am an Owner) on Aug 13, 2009I got a used one with 256 miles in '08 I think this bike is a great value! I have finally got my wife to take some rides and have now purchased a Sundowner deep bucket seat because the passenger seat was problematic. This addition will allow us to take long rides without regard to "seat" problems. ... I love this bike! With the tach I am able to transition back to "listening" to the bike and hear what I need to do if I get a "bigger" Harley without a tach. For the time being, I am just enjoying the ride.

2005 Harley-Davidson 1200R
By (I am an Owner) on Mar 26, 2009Overall a very nice bike. Handles much better than the older harleys, due to the rubber mounted engine. Handles very well on corners and stops lighting fast with the dual front disc brakes. Throttle response is very quick and the 1200 cc motor is plenty of power even with a passenger on back. ... They make lots of bolt on accessories so customizing your bike is no problem. Very pleased with my overall experience and can't list any drawbacks that wouldnt make me buy one again. I bought mine used and looks like I'll always be able to sell it for what I paid for it, if history proves anything. Although Harleys cost more up front, you get it back when it comes time to sell
