2003 XLH883, top speed just over !00 (103?) Last year of rigid mount motors (integral to frame). 2004 up were heavier. 2006 last year of carburetor.
Later, I had a 2002 Sportster 1200 Sport with factory dual plug heads, W grind cams, dual front discs, front & rear adjustable suspension. MAP controled ignition module, instead of VOES. Rear tire only lasted ~3,000 miles. Probably only bike I did mot try for top speed (est 125). 110 in 4th came quick (5 speed).
Great memories
Regarding your 08 Roadster, it was the last of the 1200 real Roadster.
