Thanks to all who replied. It sold with the buy-it-now option on ebay before I could follow up. I will keep my eyes open, but for the mods it had (paint, lowered, vance & hines, custom wheels), I think it was a sweet deal that someone else caught before I could react. Oh well.

Thanks, cool site. I've owned a 69 Camaro (new) and 65 Chevy truck with a 383 stroker (work!).

Nice bike (sigh...)

sometimes they have a friend bid on something if it's not selling for what they want. it does happen, not right but it happens.

I love my '07 Heritage. In 10 minutes the windshield and bags are off so ya can bop around town with a sassy look. Throw the gear back on and you're ready to tour the backroads. I've put 15,000 miles on mine in the last 20 months, and have loved every mile of it. I've ridden other makes and models, and always end up missing my ride. If ya go through with it, I have the factory backrest and pad for ya.

The Saddle Bags haven't been taken care of, both bags have started to collapse. They will need to be sent away to "Boss Bags"or get the repair kit from "Saggy Bags .com". The later is the cheapest way to go. I've had to stiffen my bags and they look as good as new. I have had three Heritages and have enjoyed riding each of them. Have ridden from MD to British Columbia twice on my 02 and I ride to MTand Idaho every year on my08. As someone mentioned before, the Heritage is great for the long trips as well as zipping around locally.
Nice looking bike, buy it and ride like the wind.

Good comments above. Great looking bike. Seat is pretty, but like the earlier post, if you're gonna do miles, you'll need one with someback and butt support.
