2010 Harley Motorcycle News Dark Custom Sportster

June 4th, 2010 by Rusty

When you think of new Harleys, most enthusiasts tend to consider the big twin models like the top of the line Harley Ultra Glide, the Harley Fat Boy or a Harley Softail model. But let’s not over look the wonderful Sportster platform.

We believe the Harley Sportster might be the longest continuously produced model. Launched in 1957 the Harley Sportster has been in business for 53 years and counting.

One of the more recent offerings from Harley-Davidson is their line of “dark customs” which includes the 2010 Sportster Forty-Eight.
