Harley-Davidson Sportster XL 1200T SuperLow 2014

A Harley isn't about power, it's about torque and with 96 Newton metres at just 3750 revs, you get the typical kick in the butt from way down on the Superlow 1200T too.

Smooth running

efficient windshield - can also be removed

brake works steadily and without much manual force.

Uncomfortable for longer tours

weak exhaust sound.
