Super Size Me

Which XR would you rather race / head out of town on / show-off down the pub / have in your garage / call your own? A regular Dr Pepper or a Super Size Coke?

I dispair of Harley ever producing a road bike worthy of the XR name. The 1200 just looks like a lardy cash-in but at least its an improvement on the stock Sporty.; 28 November 2008 at 16:01

It's the engine... it's the anthisesis of Sportsterdom - looks big enough to power an ocean liner... the rest could be chopped and changed, but you just can't start chiselling a new powerplant. What a "plonker"; 28 November 2008 at 22:22
