i just bought a softtail springer and love it but don't seem to see many on the road or when i was down in key west before bike week in daytona. is this not as popular as some of the other models such as softtail classic.
thanks

I like them, different look from what you normally see. I've seen a few around in philly and the guys have them tricked out all nice.

It's a retro look and with big mainstream sellers like the fat boy, etc....they probably just don't make as many. I like them, and I've heard they're sweet to ride too. As long as you like the bike, who gives a damn...ride it 'til the wheels fall off.

Welcome to bikerforums too, hope you like it here.

WooHoo!

of beauty. I see one from time to time and I know that when they are seen they are appreciated. I know one guy who rides one and I think those bikes have alot of class and dignity. Enjoy it and watch out for that "fashion" sickness. You got a beautiful scooter!

when i went hd looking, i had a heritage softail in mind because of maybe my age. but when i spied the softail springer, the youth still in me came alive and i couldn`t resist. have a 2002 softail springer and love it, love it, love it.

In my opinion....the Heritage Softail Springer is the picture of old Harley-Davidson! I wanted one of these for a 100th Ann. but my gf had other ideas. (She's got the money here so I have to listen...LOL) But just to me, it depicts the H-D of old!
