The winter wondering

During the winter months, the mind often wonders. It's a way of staying in tune with the spirit of adventure. My mind wonders and normally lands on dreams of the next bike build. This time it is on the HD Sportster. I believe that it could and would make a great scrambler type bike. Looking into it you could get 6" of travel easy enough with loads of bottom end torque. Just the right recipe for a back roads blaster, that one can go sliding around the gravel roads on. That’s the way motorcycling use to be. It a time before we thought one should pave the planet. Harley has its root deep in dirt track and that root could grow into a nice adventure bike based on an old sporty. There's a lot that you can do with one of the longest running production bikes in the world
