I have 2, a 2015 Heritage Classic and a 2002 Heritage Springer. Both really comfortable. I just did 2000 miles on the 15 Heritage with long saddle days - no problems at all but cruise would be nice.

Studded bags are the only thing I don't like about my Heritage.....

Here's a pic of us ready to go two-up on a 2500 mile road trip.



How she looks for daily riding-

For some reason the forum doesn't allow the picture.....anyway it's a Gun Metal Blue 2003 with 150 miles for $14,500 or offer.
If you want it for riding, check this one out. Save $6k, and already has SE tensioner upgrade.

I'm prejudiced, but I think the Silver/ Black is much nicer than the Gunmetal.

(For some reason I can't convert to full site after posting links on mobile, which I always used to do to make the link functional. Now font comes out tiny, unless I add something. Can Mods get that fixed? Garage Talk crashes all the time.)

I've been looking for a Gunmetal Fatboy or Heritage for years. The silver/black is great too but not my first choice. That bike has 40,000 miles. I bought my 02 Fatboy 3 years ago for $7500 with 13,000 miles. Came with V&H Longshots and Corbin seat. I just checked tensioners with 24,000 miles and they are in great shape. Will check them again at 35,000. When time comes to change, my indie will do the upgrade for $850. Plus, I keep remembering that Harley stopped using Timkin bearings after 2002.

That is a serious load up high and back! I thought my KLR was loaded on my last trip!

Thanks, I am going to have to steal that idea.


Do you have some sort of bag stiffeners in?
