Check out the Kelley Blue Book on line site for price comparisons. I like the older Springers, mainly because last year they changed to drag bars which play thunder with my back. Looks like a pretty nice bike.

 

KBB has the 1997 FXSTS at $13,520 "retail," $9,620, "trade in"

I like it. If it's as nice as it looks and you could get it for $10K, that would be a deal IMO.

 

went there to look at it today. Already sold! Oh well. Thanks for the input

 

Sorry to hear that it was already sold. I just bought an 05 Springer and I like it. I've had a lot of compliments on it because of the springer front end. It's something different and that's why I like it.

 

my mates springer

 

Howdy Mick, this is starting to get more interesting all the time. Your mate has a Springer just like mine. How does he like it and how long has he had it?

 

Hi Gary,

it's an 04 springer he's had it since new and loves it,

he's just lowered it and put some new risers and bars on. He's thinking of putting some pipes on next, all he's done for now is drilled out the SE's.

Have to say the spinger is a huge favourite of mine and his is looking pretty good with the lowering kit and all.

I'll get some updated pics when I get a chance and I'll post them for you.

Mick

 

Well now the called me and they have this in stock. A little bright for me but I am going to go check it out. It does look pretty sharp in the pictures just not sure if it is my style. Have to see it in person and give it a spin. Not a softail but I figured I would just keep it in this thread
