| It came from the dark side of wherever mother told you not to go. 240 mm rear tire. The liquid-cooled Revolution engine gets an upgrade to 1250 cc for 2008. That's 125 horses, all harnessed via a new slipper clutch. Also new this year on all VRSC models: optional ABS brakes. The only thing outpacing the RPMs is your heartbeat. |
Stripped-off parts. Drilled metal. Primer. A bike that gets down to the bare bones of what motorcycling is all about. The old-school chopped front fender and retro air cleaner cover. The smooth lowered suspension, closer to the road than any other Softail. An air cooled, rigid mounted, 1584 Twin Cam 96B balanced engine, with a blacked out finish that's pure badass. Strip down a bike to what really matters. You'll feel it in your bones. |
The Sportster has seen a lot of refinement over the years, but one look at the newest member of this family tells you the knuckles are still bare. New stop-turn-tail lights and a side-mount license plate. A low suspension puts the saddle height at just over 25". Rubber-mounted, 1200cc Evolution V-Twin. It'll put the edge back on a blade. |
