The 2009 MY Harley Davidson Sportster 1200 Custom XL1200C sports an air-cooled, 1200cc, Evolution V-twin powerhouse paired to a five-speed manual transmission, and reaches its peak torque of 107 Nm at 4000 rpm. This machine is suitable for riders who want a simple but also intimidating cruiser, suitable for both day to day use and weekend strolls through the mountains, on the highway or in the countryside.
Unlike its previous embodiment, the 2009 model comes with new front fenders and a revised suspension package. Also, it comes with a chrome, slotted-disc, cast-aluminium rear wheel, a large, 21", chrome laced steel front wheel, a wide, polished handlebar on chrome pull-back risers, an one-piece, two-up seat and forward-mounted foot controls.
