Hi All,

 

Selling my Softail Night Train. Selling due to being put up for retrenchment.

 

Price very negotiable.

Cheers!

[Highwaystar]

WoW dude! Thanks for being so honest!

 

No Remorse...No Repent...

 

Go test ride and follow your heart.

[xavez]

How tall are you? If you're 1.85m like me, a Sportster is too small. Comfort is important. If you can't stand being on the bike for 10 min you're not gonna like it. I find mini apes comfortable, while others hate it and swap it out (saw a 72 with drag bars)

 

Do you plan to change things? If you do, just get the cheapest model and swap parts to your hearts content. If you don't, then you gotta decide which aspect of the bike matters more to you. Footpeg position, handle bar type, exhaust style, wheel size...

 

To me, part of the joy of Harley ownership is having a bike that is yours and like no other. The other part is the rumbling. Last part is the rush when you go full-throttle. Wait, you mean it's supposed to bring me places?

 

For a full-on touring bike, I think that a Goldwing or a GS would make better bikes . But they don't move your soul like a Harley does.

 

And yeah, go test ride.

[Throttle]

For me its like this:

 

i have been riding for more than twenty years.

10yrs of which, biking was my only form of transport.

i got my first car when i was 28 and following that, cars became my main mode of transport.

 

however, i have always consciously kept a bike by the side be it a Honda, Ducati, Kawasaki, Trumph or HarleyD. This has allowed me to somewhat enjoy a bit of reminiscing and getting back to my biking "roots"

 

having gone through tons of bikes over the years, from sports to touring to street, to naked, to roadsters, i finally went back to a Harley as i wanted to take it easy (for now) No more knee scraping and blasting through straights. No more aggressive sprints. Just simple, relaxed chugging.

 

I think i have found what i want for now. Just dont know for how long. *smile*

 

End of the day, ride safe and get home, thats most important.

Hiya! Thanks for your reply! WoW! So taLL! I'm short mate, like barely 1.7m, how sad! Haha! So yep, many of those scramblers & GS bikes are beyond my reach...literally! I like drag bars. I've currently got a bobbed-out Intruder 400, great riding stance and smooth mechanics but bumpy as hell and highly illegal. So yes, I'd like to change things but it has to be within the boundaries of the stupid laws here in Singapore. Otherwise, it'll be a little too stressful to ride...

 

Not sure about exhaust style & wheel sizes though, what difference would that make? Think I should keep those bits stock... Since this will be my first Class 2 bike, I feel that I should start small. I mean a 1200cc bike is already like 3 times the size of the biggest bike I ever rode! Don't even know if I can handle it. It's quite a big jump!

 

Met up with a friendly Harley rider last weekend and got some invaluable pointers. Yeah, Harley's have a certain 'X' factor. Sure there are other more practical bikes to suit a multitude of purposes; touring, city riding, handling, acceleration, power, speed etc... Bottom line is no matter how competent the bike is at what it does, it's still NOT a Harley! Which has an allure that no other bike does...

 

There is one that caught my eye recently, I'm damn tempted to place a deposit, and pay booking fees just to reserve it. This is even before I've gotten my Class 2, and therefore I shan't be able to test ride. There are some who would advocate this course of action, but prudence suggests otherwise. What do you think

Thanks for taking the time to reply friend! Yeah, I know. I kinda recognised your nick and avatar from my MCF days. Haha! I've been a road-user for 20 years as well, but have since given up driving, and took to the riding instead. For me it's like FINALLY! I've got myself in the wind! Had to drive last time due to family objections (you know how parents are with bikes right?!), but now that I've moved out and live more or less independently, I think I'm entitled to do what I want. Which is ride a Harley Davidson! I still have a Harley t-shirt which I've kept from my secondary school days... Yep, I've wanted to ride since I was a kid!

 

At my age, certainly no knee-scraping, balls-to-the-wall action for me anymore! Need to preserve whatever I'm left with haha! So same here, just simple, relaxed chugging is the name of the game. And a Harley Davidson is the answer, albeit an entry level one. And like I mentioned in my previous reply to xavez, I've got my sights on one right now, but not sure how wise it is to place a deposit and book the bike without even having at first test ridden the machine. I am able to get friends to test ride on my behalf of course, but that wouldn't be the same thing would it?

 

Always stay safe man! Cheers!

Hi, can't start my sportster after 3 weeks away, can someone recommend me tow truck service and workshop. Thanks

 

Can it crank at all?

if not it is just battery issue.

get a new battery and replace it.

Siple 15 min job.

no need to tow nor service.

[amen23]

Hi guys,

 

I'm thinking to getting a HD but my main worry is the aftermarket loud exhuast.

My question is for those stay in HDB flat, any compliant or disture to the bike from the people staying around

or how you guys handle the bike when came back in the middle of the night.

[xavez]

Amon-Ra, have patience and test ride it yourself... Your butt is different from your friend's butt lol.

 

amen23, just simply keep the rpm low in gear 2. The legal pipes are quiet when the throttle is almost closed.

 

Not legal pipes? No way around it. Sure piss people off.

[amen23]

Thanks for the advice.

It street legal pipes.

[tempest]

Bro, if your battery isn't due for replacement, just get a battery charger. It will come in handy from time to time.

[rattlesree]

[jacel]

[akesu]

Morning Guys!

 

feeling weak on my battery, the battery icon in speedo blinking once when start up (one time the speedo off and on back again), maybe time to change it.

 

not sure to change into Lithium ion battery or not, any brothers there using it?

 

more infor from me:

riding fatboy lo

stock battery bought from HDS last April

everyday riding less 10km (HDS told me I ride too less so the battery die easily)
