Isn't the Deluxe the one with the extra low seat height? If so, what did they do to get it lowered - frame, suspension, ???

Vegas,

I don't think the new FLSTN's are any kind of limited edition. They are available in a varity of colors, Lava Red, Black and White, Blue and White, etc., and appear to be a cross between a Heritage and a Fatboy that has been lowered. The picture Ironhead posted is what they look like.

Regards,

Bill

Are you referring to the Softail Deluxe or the Springer Classic? I just picked up the latest copy of American Iron where they rode and reviewed the Classic. Nice article.

Allrighty then, I stand corrected, the originals were limited addition but the new Deluxe is not. Still sweet looking ride though. Really like that black and White Whip
