A friend past away and I am trying to help his wife clean out/ sell parts that he had.
He had 2 springer front ends.
This 1 FLSTS, any idea of years used and $$ value??
There was a WO# on the side and the rubbers look new so I think he must have had it rebuilt??
there is 1 mark on the chrome that is shown in the last pictures.
thanxs in advance

this 1 is in rough shape as you can see, from what I understand the plan was to get this front end bead blasted and eith rechromed or blacked???
anyways any identity & $$ worth would be appreciated.

If the first springer is straight, it may be worth around $750.00 eBay value.
The 2nd springer pictured above is worth nothing really. I was at an H-A club house party where they were trying to auction one. Keep in mind there were a few hundred people there and everything else was selling. But even at $25.00 nobody bid on it. Then the auctioneer help it up and say "FREE", still no takers. He just threw in into a scrap pile! It might have been high in damand in the 70's, but certainly not today.
Heritage Springer front end in chrome... 97-2003
Pic looks bent.
it maybe the pictures and the angle I have it sitting?? I will take a better look to be sure.
is there anyway I can measure or is it just eye balled for staightness??
Mr. Rowdy,
it would cost a fortune to ship from here, Vancouver Island,BC.
