Got my softail out after all the changes. Holy crapola. Felt so good and sounded so good going down the road. Much better than that stale twincam. Only problem is my wife was gone and I could only go through the neighborhood with my kids being at home.
The EVO Softail Customs and Softail Standards are such great bikes to own and ride. I love the unbalanced solid mounted engines. They have just the right amount of vibes to let you feel the power, but smooth enough to enjoy the ride. Happy Trails on your 97. It is a beautiful bike.
Jim, my wife thinks I'm nuts cause I like the vibe from the pre-rubber mounted bikes too. 'speshully the Sportsters, you can feel that little sucker come to life and it feels GOOD!
