0:00 2:01:53

Is the Harley-Davidson Sportster the most culturally significant American motorcycle ever built? On this episode, we dive deep into the legendary history and evolution of the Harley Sportster.

Joined by aficionado Patrick Garvin, the guys break down everything from the 1957 original 883 to the Ironhead era, the Evo transition, the controversial rubber mounts, the Sportster S, and why Harley-Davidson is bringing back the classic 883 platform. Plus, a follow-up on flying motorcycles and another round of the Engine Sound Guessing Game!
