ONLY a Nostalgia or Special OWNER would have any idea what he is talking about as it is truly "400 level" stuff (like Senior College courses!) The words he throws out here: "Holstein" and "Black Angus", are the actual types of leather used in the seats. Harley's brochures in 1993 and 1994 actually printed the description of the unique leather used on the seats, pony-bags, and tank strips...and this is the ONLY place I have ever seen "Holstein leather" and "Black Angus leather" used as any type of description regarding these bikes, ha. I think Uncle G is making a case to be called Dr. G with his hilarious interpretation of an owner calling his bike the "Black Angus Glide" - that's great!

I think the Freshmen here (or anyone else not intimately familiar with these bikes) should just stick to the 3 best-known categories of FLSTN nomenclature:

1. 1993; Heritage Softail Nostalgia. Nickname Cow-Glide or Moo-Glide
2. 1994-1996; Heritage Softail Special. (improper, yet accepted, nickname Nostalgia or Cow-Glide) ...see catagory 1.
3. 2007-Current; Softail Deluxe (usually not improperly nicknamed)

Thanks Dr G , you are, as always, at the top of your game!
