Default 1990 Heritage FLSTC

I picked this up today at a local HD dealership. I never rode an old Heritage before so it felt a little strange with the wide bars but I think it'll grow on me. My other ride is a hopped up 2001 Sporty with drag bars. It has S&S heads and E carb.

He called them beach bars.

Hey OP if you ever have problems with that bike or any questions I suggest you post in the EVO forum

Great score! That's a beautiful bike.

And yes, those are beach bars. I tried a set of them on my Fat Boy and just couldn't get used to them. It felt like operating a garden tiller. I wound up getting some Drag Specialties bars that are about a 95% match to my stock bars, but thicker and with a bit more pullback.
