Harley to discontinue the Sportster.

Just read an article today that Harley will nolonger manufacture the Sportster model. Kind of surprised it was one of their biggest sellers. It was always to small and tall for my liking. There are thousands of aftermarket parts for this bike so it will be around for a few lifetimes.

I suspect it is a victim of the EU emissions laws. 25 percent of Harleys sales are in Europe and the Euros buy small bikes. So I would think that hit the Sportsters sales pretty hard.

Plus, who the hell is going to pay 14k for an entry level bike?
