There's a link in my signature to my Springer Classic build. I love that bike.

FBB speaks the truth. Springers are awesome.

One thing I would suggest, if you go with a Springer Classic - the 2007 model has the 96" engine and 6 speed transmission. Not important to all people, but some do care about that.

That said, mine is an 06, and the TC 88 with cams is plenty quick enough.

Yeah I just love the classic look of them. Plenty of 05 and 06's for sale but haven't seen many 07's

I agree, had my Springer for over 10 years and almost 92k on her and she's never for sale or trade. If I had the extra money, I'd buy a Springer Classic just for the heck of it cause I like the look.
