New to Harleys

Last year I bought a 2002 883 Sportster just so I could say that I owned a Harley. I already had a 2001 Honda GL1800 and a Suzuki DR 650, but wanted to get a Harley just to get it off of my bucket list. After riding the bike for a while it just didn.t have quite the performance that I wanted so I did the conversion along with an Andrews N2 cam and Rush slip ons. The bike is running great now and I am happy with it. I upgraded the GL1800 to a 2012 model which I use on IBA rides, but the Sportster is kind of my main transportation when running around town and for short trips (less than 200 miles).
Perhaps next summer I will do an IBA ride on it just to say I did a Saddlesore 1000 on a Sportster!
I really like the bike and plan further modifications to it in the future!
