Default Finally after a three year search-Softail Springer

I had been trying to get a Heritage Springer for some time. I wanted a garage queen and about four times in the past three years when I found one someone else had just scooped it up.

My dealer did a search for me of all the HD dealers and came across two. One was in South Carolina and the other was in Tampa Florida. Both were the color that I wanted which was white with red strips and both were loaded with the accessories that I wanted particularly fish tails and twisted spokes.

I wound up with the one at Timm's HD in South Carolina. I am headed there Tues. to pick it up in my van. It had belonged to the Sales Manager who traded it in on a Street Glide.

My collection is now complete with the 97 Springer. I have a FXRS to be put back together so that I can find out what the story is in how a FXR handles.

The First picture is with the passenger seat, sissy bar and luggage rack and the other picture is set up solo.

Congrats !. Have a friend who owns a Dark Red Metallic like yours...Don't know what year it is, but always a beauty to look at it while riding together.


Enjoy,


Thorey

Congrats.

Heritage Springer not a Softail Springer as your title says (just sayin... we Springer people are picky like that).

What did you pay for it?

Timm's is in Anderson. Heard of 'em, never been there.


They have pics of the OP's bike up on their website - it's a beauty! And low miles, too. Nice score!

Sounds and looks great, I wouldn't mind having a Heritage in my garage to go along with my FXSTS.
