Far too many models it seems to me! It must cost the factory a fortune in spare parts etc. No wonder they are suffering economic problems...

It's a shame the Bronx Streetfighter was not released.

Just read an online test of the new MultiStrada, the new GS and the new Harley..on road, off road etc.

!st Place was the Harley best overall, best suspension Their ESA has rebound damping
2nd GS best engine torque (lowest HP by the way)
3rd Multistrada fastest...more of a road bike

Looks like we may finally..in couple of years... get a read upgrade to the ESA suspension....long over due.

I've had adjustable damping (on a prior bike) and never could figure out how to truly tailor the setting. As such, adjustable damping could be another feature that's never used.

As for the lowest HP number, I'll take torque. If HP was the "end-all", we would be on the S1000 Forum having this discussion.

Here is a review of the new H-D 2022 Sportster S, which will be sold alongside the Iron 1200 - at least for a little while. However to my eye they can keep that big possum scraper, plus the 3 gallon gas tank is sure not going to take you very far. And then there is the price and the fat front tire. I doubt this is going to be H-D's best selling model: https://www.revzilla.com/common-tread/20...son-sportster-s
