Default Picking up a 96 Softail

Been awhile since I've been around. Got rid of my 96 EGC 3 years ago and picked up a 11 RGU. Well I will be bringing home a 19 heritage this weekend. It will primarily be for my youngest son. Also getting an 02 for me to tool around on, and maybe let my older boy ride. I am sure I will have questions and look forward to getting involved again.

That's pretty impressive since they haven't even released the 17 models!!!

Lol. Should have done a proofread. 1996

What size are those bars? I'm also picking up an '02 that has what I believe to be 16".

Well I brought the 96 home Saturday morning. Took a trip to the hardware store with the boy, here is the purple 96 and the black 02 in the Lowe's parking lot. Actually met the PO when I was picking it up Saturday morning at the dealership. Nice guy. Verified that a new engine was dropped in 20k ago, and also learned he did a cam. He couldn't remember exactly which one. I do know it runs strong. Hangs with my 103 RGU no issues at all.
