Default On a Softail now!

Greetings everyone. In my mid 60's, been riding since I was a kid, and finally got a softail WOOHOO! I've currently got two Dynas, I'll be selling one and keeping the other. I found a 2022 Heritage with only 277 miles! I found it in Oklahoma with a way better price than anything I could find here in Albuquerque. The original owner was someone who "wanted a bike his whole life" and then bought this as his first bike and was intimidated by it. I've purchased all my bikes as low mileage garage queens. I have a good friend who lives in OK who picked it up for me. I'll be going out there this weekend and riding it home.

Even though I've been riding quite a while I'm sure I'll be asking you guys all kinds of softail newb questions.

Anyway, here's a picture of it when my buddy brought it home this afternoon:





And I might as well show off my other two bikes while I'm here haha. Here's the one I'm selling:




Here's the one I'm keeping:

Great find and great friend too! I'd personally keep the one you're selling lol I never used to be a fan of the heritage but these updated M8 114 heritages have grown on me and I think I'll eventually end up on one in the future.

Awesome find. Lightly used garage queens are usually fantastic buys. Softails are where it's at; light and peppy but still rock stable for high speed highway runs.
