FXB-80 STURGIS powered by an 80 cubic inch engine with a 4-speed transmission. The FXB features the first modern belt drive and uses both primary and secondary drive belts in lieu of chains. The styling of the Sturgis features all black engine, transmission, battery cover, air cleaner, instrument panel and cast wheels with orange stripe. It has an electric start and a kickstart. The name of this new vehicle recalled its beginnings. It was named after the famous Black Hills Classic, which began as a gypsy tour and dirt-track race in 1938. Originally sponsored by the Jack Pine Gypsies motorcycle club, the event has grown into a popular multi-day festival of scenic touring, racing and entertainment. Today, “Sturgis” is the largest motorcycle rally in the world, and a rite of passage for many riders.
