We now have to make do with a multitude of variations on the Sportster theme with peanut tank, which frankly is a loss.

This is a more 'normal' version of the green godess!

Even that looks cool in a very retro way... I wouldnt mind owining it thats for sure...

Fred Warr built a Sportster similar to this one in the late 70s, but with a larger tank. I haven't been able to find a similar bike, so not sure which model he took the tank from.
