2008 Sportster XL1200 Custom Mileage

Here's a photo of the odometer taken March 20, 2010. The current mileage reads 4293. You can see the Harley-Davidson tachometer mounted above the speedometer.

Why am I selling?

I have a broken leg (not motorcycle related) that is not healing and I can't stand seeing this great motorcycle sit in the garage, under cover, for another riding season. I've owned several motorcycles including sport bikes and dual-purpose bikes and this Sporster is the most comfortable and darn near best handling of the lot.

This is a machine that needs to be out in the sun, clocking miles.
