Sold the Road Glide last week and picked up a new project! It’s a Cherry 2005 Springer Classic that a gentleman put a whole bunch of work into and then passed away somewhat soon after. It’s got a SE Stage IV 113” pro kit and updated crank, and a SE 6-speed. The bike pulls harder than an Harley I’ve ever ridden by a factor of two at least! Reminds me of the way a V65 or a V-max pulled in the 80’s.. can feel your face being pulled off. It doesnt look like a bike that someones dumped a bunch of money into the motor of, which sort-of adds to the appeal. The engine runs very quietly, with only the expected upper valve train tick you’d expect from a high lift cam, runs quieter than my ’14 Slim did in fact!

Here’s the as is now pics, I have big plans for it and already have some parts on the way

 

Very cool, looking forward to seeing the new mods

 

Someone took very good care of that springer and spared no expense, you're a lucky man. Looking forward to what you do with it.

 

Man! That's one of the great HD models of the Twin-Cam era. Nice bike. I'd like to hear the motor revved up in a video. A quick revving Stage IV has a sound all its own.

 

Welcome to the world of Springers.

 

Looks like that's a 2003 100 Heritage Springer Anniversary seat. If the logo is still in good shape you should be able to sell it and buy a regular seat and put money in your pocket!

Bike sounds great. Looking forward to seeing your mods.

 

Your bike looks great! Welcome to your new addiction!
PS: what kinds of plans for it?

 

Can't go wrong with a springer!!

 

Awesome dude! Love springers

 

Beautiful bike, love springers. I think I would just ride that one and keep my wallet in my pocket.
