Colours shown may not be available in Canada.
Flash is what the Sportster 1200 Custom does best. While the Sportsters are often stripped-down and basic, this bike has lots of chrome, including its five-spoke cast wheels. It has a fat front end, a 1,203 cc engine, and you can use Harley's H-D1 Customization programme to further personalize it with different wheels and custom paint. ABS is a $915 option.
