That was me, John, also with a Sportster!
Possibly the slowest street bike I have ever owned, but nevertheless cherished because it's quite competent at everything I need from it. I ride it perhaps 3X a week for errands that don't require a truck, and when we take the Freightliner to model flying events, it comes along as transportation backup. Mine is blue '05 model.
A little bit about me . . .
