When people talk about this bike, they usually speak in grunts. 1200CCs of V-Twin
power tend to do that to a person. Add the stepped-seat, pullback handlebar, 3.3
gallon fuel tank and shorty dual exhaust, and, suddenly, perfectly normal people can�t
help but pump their fists and bark like a pack of wild hyenas.

If beauty is in the eye of the beholder, then this bike isn�t much to look at. That�s
because the beholder usually sees the Custom as merely a blur of color. But then the
Custom comes to a stop. For a moment, you see the 21" laced front wheel topped
with a bullet headlight. You get a glimpse of the noble Sportster profile, with a
lowered suspension. Then, in an instant, the Custom is gone as quick as it came,
leaving you wondering if you ever really saw it at all.

We've been developing the Sport's new engine enhancements under a veil of secrecy
over the last few years. It's got dual-plug cylinder heads. Modified exhaust. New
cams. Non-waste spark ignition. With 15% more torque, it's hard to believe the
Sport is street legal. That's enough information. We could tell you more, but then
we'd have to kill you, web-geek.
