Highlight 05 heritage springer and while highlighted, right click and hit search. Google brings up pages of examples. Do the same for your 05 classic springer. Mine is set to open in a new window, so now I have separate pages to compare.

Too Cool bike for a cruiser. Do not expect any kind of performance out of the suspension or brakes but if you drive it right, you will never know the difference. If you're the type who wants a tuner, exhaust and one more HP , get something more modern. It's a 2005 but has front brakes and suspension from a very old system for looks

Welcome to the forum.

Look at pictures of both and you will see the difference. The better bike is the one you like more. It's that simple.

There is no such thing as a 2005 Heritage Springer. The Heritage Springer was made from 97-03. The 2005-07 model is named the Softail Springer Classic.

97-03. Chrome front end, bags as standard fishtail exhaust more bling

05-07 Softail Springer Classic- Black front end, no bags, stripped down version of it's predecessor.
