French Sportster This 1200 Sportster comes to us from Bertrand Ruhmann in France. Not everyone in Paris drives a Renault and drinks wine. There are bikers there, and they they tinker with their scoots just like any good Harley rider. What do you do if you ride the best handling bike bearing the Harley-Davidson logo? You go to the sister company and get a set of heads that are guaranteed to improve the horsepower. Betrand's bike is producing 82.2 HP at the rear wheels. That's a very respectable number for a street Sportster. You can be sure that 'many a crotch rocket' have been surprised to find this bike passing them on the narrow, twisting roads of the French countryside. |
