They quit making the Heritage Springer, then a year later came out with the Springer Classic. They can't seem to make up their mind. One year its out and the next year its back in. I'm sure the decision is sales driven.

So maybe the next one will be;

Heritage Legacy Springer Classic Retro Custom

i knew the FXR was gonna come up, its name is droped so much when i talk to people who have riddin for a while.

so maybe someone could edjucate me

why? i have see a few and talked extensivly one day with a guy who owned one (i stoped to see if he was ok cause he was on the side of the road, turns out he had just rebuilt it and was havin some carb issues) the frame is cool, deffinetly stands out, the tank looks like a deuce tank, was it the performance of it? or does it just remind you of a different time? besides the frame, whats the deal?
