family overview
Agility. Power. Classic style. Sportster
®
motorcycles are
100% American legends. Ruling the back roads since
1957, this nimble, fun-to-ride family of motorcycles is
steeped in racing history and authentic flat-track soul.
The Sportster
®
motorcycle is a true American icon boasting
classic, post WWII looks with a slim frame and profile. And
while other motorcycle makers have followed the crowd
with whiney, liquid-cooled engines encased in plastic,
the Sportster
®
model has stood proudly against the tide.
Stamped steel and cast aluminum make up its heart and it
beats to a different drum.
Sportster
®
models are perfect for enthusiasts – especially
young adults – who feel the need to ride to the beat
of a different drum. The diverse lineup’s customization
possibilities make it easy to express individuality
while incredible value makes owning a Sportster
®
model
an affordable reality. Model Year 2014 enhancements
make it even easier to enjoy the ride thanks to a
new brake system, new electrical system, and new
exhaust system.
With performance like a live wire, nimble agility, and new
confidence-inspiring features, the Sportster
®
family of
bikes are an open invitation to take back the streets, block
by block.

Harley-Davidson’s independent Anti-lock Braking System is designed to help
you maintain control during braking events, especially those that happen
in less than optimum conditions. Engineering and styling worked together
to make sure the system is not only designed and carefully tested to work
superbly, but that it is also engineered not to interfere with style. ABS is
available as an option on all 2014 Sportster
