The smart aleck answer is "How bad does he want it?" I just traded for a 1990 Heritage with 35000 miles with a new top end, charging system, brakes, tires--it was a trade, but cash value was in the $7,000 range. Springers are more and I would be a bit concerned about a 26 year old engine with very little use. I, too am new here. You may want to check on the EVO board. Lots of guys here really know their stuff. JMHO

Heritage Springer? Didn't they start making them in '97? '84 was the first year for EVO and Softail, but the Springer didn't come along until the late '80s, and the Heritage Springer a decade after that.

actually, according to h-d history, the FXSTS appeared in the '88..
so I don't see any 1984 Heritage springer... as a matter of fact, the Heritage Softail was introduced in '86 so it is not a 1984 Heritage softail fitted with a springer front end either... :S better check the VIN to get more data

From my good friend, Wiki...
Harley-Davidson introduced the Softail chassis in 1984. The original Softails used the small FX telescopic forks, but the FLST Heritage Softail with large FL telescopic forks was introduced in 1986. The FLSTC Heritage Softail Classic, with large front forks and retro styling, was in production by 1988.
Other Softails with big forks followed, including the 1990 introduction of the FLSTF Fat Boy and the 1993-only FLSTN "Cow Glide". The base FLST Heritage Special was discontinued in 1991. The FLSTN was continued after 1993 without the bovine motif as the Nostalgia model until 1997, when it was replaced by the FLSTSC Springer Classic. The Springer Classic is also designated as an FL despite using Springer forks instead of the large FL telescopic forks.
In 2000, all Softails, including the FL models, were switched from the Evolution engine to the counterbalanced Twin Cam 88B engine specially developed for the rigid engine mounting in this frame.
