The FXSTS Springer (21" front wheel) was made from about 1988 until 2007.
The FLSTS Springer, also called the "Heritage Springer", (16" front wheel) was made from about 1997 until 2003.
Another FL Springer, the FLSTSB "CrossBones", (16" front wheel) was made from 2008 until 2011.
Yes sorry, you're correct on the FLSTS "Heritage Springer", but there's one more and the one I was looking at ... the slightly later 2005-07 FLSTSC "Springer Classic"

Thanks for that info... I was unaware of that model.
That's a very nice looking bike!!
It kind of looks like a "Deluxe" Springer rather than a "Heritage" Springer.. But what can I say, I've grown to really like any Springers...
Read through the builds best I could, lots of detail. The one thing I missed is what actual front fender is used, Is it a Heritage Springer fender??

Hello TSheff,
It IS the FLSTS Springer, (16" front wheel) I found one (wrong colour NOS on eBay) for the '98 anniversary model. As you can see, hellish expensive - but at least it was straight and true. Funnily, the striping was a sticker, and had gone hard and started to curl off the fender at the edges. No matter, I'm gonna paint the whole thing.
I will add to the pictures page once I have the bike re-tinned (probably Xmas)

That's what I needed to know. When I get to that point I'll likely go with a reproduction $$$ cheaper, unless the real thing falls in my lap.

I'm probably going to go with a bare rear fender the same dimensions as the 8" Fatboy fender, as I want to use a different taillight and don't need the preformed stock area.
I like this style light. Can anyone Identify and name it? I've been searching and have yet to find a replica. Looks like it as part of the fender and the light is inserted, not sure. regardless. I like the look and would like something similar. 
This Crocker is the closest I've found and looks like it could be painted easily.
