HA HA !! Just my opinion . . . Right??!!
Well, if it makes you feel better (I'd) have taken it.
No ! Not really. I might have stood there by it til you got
back, Just to keep any body from seeing keys sitting there
and maybe gettin' stupid.
How many times have we seen someone shut the eng off with the
kill switch, leaving their H/L on & walking away.
Ya hate to touch someone elses scooter to shut the Ign/Sw off.

My pockets were too full of loose change to fit my keys so I had to leave them on the seat of my Heritage while I went into the grocery store to run some errands. Wife kept texting me more things to get...then all the last minute trick or treat candy buyers...check out took 45 minutes. Bike was stil there when I got out of the store to fit all the goodies in the too small bags of my Heritage. Picked up the keys off he seat...Even thieves don't like the flat red primer color. Best security measure I've ever had. I'm sure loving this color.

One thing about the new Softail is no more switch so no way to accidentally leave it on. In fact sometimes I shut it off and wish I still had the lights and electrics on separately like before without re-priming the fuel pump/injectors etc. I like old switches.

re; Sr moments - join the club. we've got jackets (Where'd I put my jacket?)
re; Paint. I wonder how the 115 Aniv paint will look
re; Ign Sw. How does that work? The 18 I demo'd, I just pushed
the start button & went, thinking I'd REALLY have to read the
owners manual on this model.

Lolololol. I appreciate that. I deffinitely had a senior moment. Nice thing about the "primer" for you would be ready to custom paint it.

Yes I saw several @ Rossmeyers in Ormond Beach a few weeks back. I am a long time Heritage owner and went to see "the new" Heritage, did not like it at all. It has lost it's namesake On the other hand, the Deluxe"s they had were traditional and great looking.. I am thinking about the Deluxe with quick release add ons to utilize it like a Heritage and also upgrade the handle bars.
The Deluxe still looks good and not blacked out etc.

I'll have to take better notice of them when I look again. I was actually looking at the Heritages next to a couple Deluxe's. I was so disappointed in the Heritage I just took a step back look at the Deluxe. Did not look at all the details.

I asked my dealer to let me know when they got a new Deluxe in. They called last week to say that they hadn’t forgot about me, and apologized for not knowing exactly when they would get one in.
