It's my second one. Love the look, ride and feel. Easy to do some customizing and you can make it yours by doing what you want to it. Besides, I was born in '52 and it copies the harley from '52. Heritage.

Am I the youngest heritage owner on here? Im 26. I have a 97, its my first bike and love how its looks like a hydra glide. There is nothing not to love about it. I cant wait for it to warm up. I went home on a pass this weekend and took the wife out for a short ride. Froze my *** off.

My 2007 Heritage is my first Harley, though I have road a few before.

I love the nimble feel and handling of the Heritage. It handles like a much lighter bike.


Plus, like others, I love the classic styling!


I think sometimes about upgrading to an Ultra or Road King but I think I would regret that in the long run and miss the Heritage too much.

The first time I sat on a Heritage I knew I had to have one. It just felt right. When I finally got one, on the ride home it was like I had been on that bike forever. I rode my friends Street Glide last year, It just didn't fill as good to me.

Some likes the bike just can't do the spots and leather.

Looks of a Heritage can be a Love or Hate thing.

But the comfort and ride of one cant be denied.

There's a reason its called the Touring bike of the Softails.
