It’s been a little over a year since I got my Sportster and I’ve put a little over 11,000 miles on it in that time. I just got some new tires and a few other things to get me started for spring (not that I stopped riding in winter). I haven’t really changed anything big on the bike but I’ve done a bunch of little things now that I think about it. And since I like lists, here you go:
