In addition, the Heritage has fender tip lamps.

Had a sportster for a minute, then a 1982 shovel FXR that I rode for 23 years. Picked up my '00 Heritage last October. Never have looked back. The bike is perfect for me.

If they gave it cruise control HD would not sell any touring bikes........swifty

I agree with Swifty, my wife has a 2014 CVO Deluxe with cruise. I had a Street Glide and the only thing I miss is the cruise. I heard that they are some major changes for the 2016 softail, maybe cruise control will be added….

The Heritage is a great bike but until they offer an option to delete the chrome studs from the seat and bags I''l continue to by other models.

Love my 06 Heritage..but I have to agree with Misbehaven..The chrome studs is over the top in my opinion..I am in the process of changing them all out for black studs/dots now. Seat, back pack and 1 saddle bag is done..but really like the look a lot more.

I seldom stop by at a dealship, but when I do I always find myself sitting on a heritage, reminiscing about my long gone Evo powered one. Now that they finally come with ABS brakes I've been thinking of picking up another, (and keeping my Ultra Limited). And, again I ask the sales guy hovering nearby, "can I get one with electonic cruise control like my Ultra has?" He answers with a "No". What's the problem HD? Once you have it I won't go back to riding a street bike without cruise control. Then I tell the sales guy how all the Indians all come with cruise control. then I usually walk out the door, again.
