But the new ones are not Competition Hot like the old ones. Plus, not a lot of girls would be not able to kick start one of those mid-1960's Sporsters. No electric starters on the CH versions. My H-D brochure says they were "dynamite on or off the road".
No arguments from me on any of that. FWIW I liked the H version a lot better, they were almost as fast and a lot easier to live with.
