Am I the only one who misses the FX options in the Softail line? Everything except the Breakout has the FL front end, and I've never really been a fan. I prefer either the Springer or FX front ends.

Ok, sure, the Breakout is a nice bike, but that 240 rear tire makes it hard to lean into a corner. I prefer the sweet spot of 180-200, is that too much to ask?

I say bring back, at the very least, the FXSTC Softail Custom.

 

I've been saying the same thing for years. The thing is they still make the FXST's and send them to Australia. Not sure why they wouldn't still offer them here seems they'd sell enough to make it worthy. The other day I looked at the official HD website and checked out the 16 line up and saw absolutely nothing that would make me walk in there and drop down some bucks and trade in my 02 FXST.

 

I think the springer front end would sell .

 

I mis-um also .

 

were they big sellers, usually harley gives a reason for discontinuing.

 

They were huge sellers, the FX series of Softails were the basis for most custom bikes built for years. Who knows, maybe they will bring them back, like they did with the Dyna Wide Glide and the Road King. It just didn't seem to take as long with those models.
