Very nice book. Good photos and lots of info. But the history stops at 2004, so an update would be useful. This is really a valentine to the Sportster, and the author often glosses over their shortcomings. I think this is a mistake. I love Sportsters, but i'd like to hear both sides of the story.

If you love Sportsters, like I do, you will love this book. It is well written, well illustrated, and fun to read. Not the most modern book, the most recent Sportsters are 4 years old now and not in this book by the time it was published, but nonetheless a good history.

When I was thinking about buying my first HD I did some research both on technical stuff and the history of its models. The model that attracted me the most was the Sportster, which is completing 50 years in 2007. This is a great book to tell us a little about its history and evolution. Since part of the fun in riding a Harley is enjoying its tradition (mechanicallywise you'd be better off riding a Honda), I highly recommend this book.
