You know I love my old 95 Evo powered Heritage, but that is the only bike that has ever given cause to considering trading it in for.

Congratulations!

No, no, no!! That is the whole point... this bike is best left alone as much as possible... the beauty of it is that it looks great as is... I would not do much to it...

It reality, it would best as a replacement to the Sportster... just like what you did. But I just can't get rid of mine [/quote]

I feel the same way. Swingarm solo bag and grips and I'm done.

BTW. My Sportster had gremlins, otherwise I would have kept it.
