Harley Sportster 883 Custom

That's a nice bike you have there! I think you made the right decision over a Sportster. The Triumphs get good reviews, and I have always secretly coveted one because the 650s were so much the thing back in the day, and the newer ones have kept the look and spirit of the older ones while adding better engine control and brakes.

Also, there was some talk here of Harley's holding their value better than many other bikes. Generally they do, but used Sportster 883s are a dime a dozen, at least around here. People tend to buy them and get sick of them real quick. You'll do better with what you got. Not that you'll want to sell it anytime soon.
