Harley davidson sportster
Harley Davidson Sportster Motorcycle: Sportster is a model that has been continuously produced by the Harley Davidson Motorcycle Company from 1957. The letters ‘XL’, used as a prefix in the product code, identify all Sportster motorcycles manufactured by Harley Davidson. Earlier, from 1952 to 1956, Harley did manufacture machines for sports that had designated product codes K, KK, KH, KHK, but they are not considered to be Sportsters. Harley Davidson Sportsters are powered by forty-five degree twin engines, in which both the rods are connected to a common crank pin.
The other features that characterize Harley Davidson Sportster motorcycles are triple row primary transmission chains and a cable operated multiplate clutch. Prior to 1991, Harley Davidson Sportsters had four-speed transmissions. Thereafter, all Sportsters have been equipped with a five-speed transmission. 2004 saw the introduction of a new frame for the Sportster that allowed for a rubber-mounted engine, making it very comfortable. Previously, most of the engine vibrations were transmitted to the frame and the rider. In 2007, the 50th Anniversary of the Sportster, Harley introduced a limited edition of the Sportster; the XL50 1200. It is in fact a collector’s item, of which only 2000 have been manufactured.
