The American engineers from House Milwaukee have created the 1999 MY Harley Davidson XL 1200C Sportster Custom for those riders who want a laid-back and comfortable riding position. It has features such as cast-aluminium wheels, a low, one-piece, dual seat, a telescopic front fork coupled to dual adjustable shock absorbers as a rear suspension, a blacked-out, steel frame, an analogue instrument cluster, a chromed, staggered, single-sided shorty exhaust system, front and rear disc brakes and a small, chromed headlight.

In addition, it can produce a claimed 58 horsepower and 87 Nm of torque from its four-stroke, air-cooled, 1199cc, 45-degree V-Twin powerplant, mated to a five-speed manual transmission with a belt final drive.
