Yup, it's my Heritage Softail - love it and wouldn't change it. Never thought I'd be able to get one but, circumstances got better, and that's what headed into my garage on September 1st this year! I'm still grinning and have to keep going (yes, even after these weeks!) into my garage at night or on bad weather days, just to look at her.
I'm fortunate in that I could go to the dealer tomorrow and pay cash for any bike on the floor. My last Harley was a new 01 Heritage Classic. My present bike is a used 05 1200 C that I have tricked out like a mini-bagger. It has been a long time since I've owned a particular bike and not been thinking about my next one. That's where I am now. The Sportster is doing everything I want it to do and it's the right bike for me at the right time. At my age I don't see myself going to a bigger or heavier bike. Hell, if I'm around long enough I'll probably end up on a scooter!!!!!
