RE: What exactly is a FLSTC
I have been woundering this for a while now,thanks.
ORIGINAL: billnourse
FL=touring front end
FX=sport bike front end
ST=softail rear
H=touring bike rear
N=nostalgia/deluxe depending on the year
I=fuel injected.
R=Roadking on some models, and Rubbermounted engine on some models
C=Classic
T=touring
U=ultra
WG=wideglide front end
LR=lowrider
D=dyna
There are a lot or varying examples but this will get you started.
If you have an FLSTNI you have a FL(touring frontend) with an ST(softail swingarm) that is a N(Nostaliga if it is an older bike, and Deluxe if it is a new model), and it is I(fuel injected).
Hope this helps.

Bill

RE: what do the letters stand for?
The first letter "F" indicates the bike falls within one of the (now) 3 family groups that have the largest engine (for now the 88 c.i./1450cc). Therefore, all Dynas, Softails, and Touring families begin with F. The second character tells us the size of the front end (L = large, X - sporty, or small). The next character(s) tells us the family group (D = Dyna, ST = Softail, and H or T = Touring). The next character(s) identifies the model within that family (ex: D = Deuce, WG = Wide Glide, X = Street Glide, etc. This is the trickiest part and just takes time to learn...but it can be learned as most letters used make sense). The I on the end simply tells us it is fuel injected...or carburated if there is no letter I.
F = Big engine for the era the bike was made (88 c.i./1450cc)
L = Large front end
ST = Softail family
N = Model identifier (Nostalgia or Deuce in your case)
I = Fuel Injected
Oh, yea, the V-Rod.....
