Default 105th riders

Ever wonder how many of your models are still on the street? I wish there was a way to find out...

Not many of mine from what I've seen. Maybe that's why they killed it.

I'd guess that a large number of 105th Anniversary model (2008) year bikes are still on the road.
My wife's '08 Heritage only has about 11,000 miles on it, and IMHO, it looks even better than new.

We also have an '03 RK (less than 300 miles on it) with lots of aftermarket goodies and with a quick wash, looks like a showroom bike.

My 95th Anniversary Edition (1998) model Heritage Softail Springer still looks almost like new even though it has about 9500 (pampered) miles on it.
This is probably my all-time favorite Harley.
EVO with a carb, straight Samson Fishtails, with all the saddlebag and seat fringe. I'll have this bike as long as I'm able to ride and maintain it.

I think most H-D owners these days take great pride in servicing and preserving their bikes.
