Well, sold my '81 GoldWing this spring, and have been looking for a deal on a HD ever since. I found the perfect deal on a 1995 HD Heritage Softail and snatched it up as quickly as I could. Figured I would share some pictures. One thing that puzzles me, is the customization of this bike. It doesn' thave the two-tone paint, but all black. Also, I've never seen tank emblems like these before. The previous owner said the dealership he purchased it from (he was the second owner) said it was supposed to be a throwback style to the 1950's, which is why it only has one mirror, since that is what they used back then. I'm still trying to find out all I can about this bike. Looking forward to reading through the technical discussion in these forums. Thanks!

Greetings,
