I did looked at almost every factory custom, HD and I went with the FXSTS. Should be in any day now. It seems most people that DO NOT ride a springer say its a stiff ride. People I spoke to that do ride springers said that it rides great and isn't stiff at all. I figure it's gotta ride better that a Sportster.
Loved it dearly, always drew a crowd. Sold it to a nice YOUNG man who could handle the vibration (EVO) Ride a nice stock Wide Glide now. No crowds, no vibrations, just a nice bike.
Love the looks of your springer. Very nice. I can see why you loved it dearly.
I ride a Springer classic and love it. It's just a different ride and I love the looks of the springer front end.
I have a 2005 Springer Classic and have over 10,000 miles on it. I have ridden it on all types of roads and speeds...I love the way it rides, I love the way it looks fenders and all!!
