And it's not a mistake. Went to the dealer yesterday to order some spare keys, and we ran the numbers.
Mine was sold and titled as a FXT.
wierd eh?

Also had the chrome motor kit put on it at the factory.

Well heck, I don't know.

Back in the mid 1980's they had the "FXT" Softail, but the newer Standards have always been the "FXST" as far as I know....

Wonder why they left the "S" out on the bike you have, but then again, I've seen some weird 'bike models' shown on some titles

I don't know. I think he's still at the MoCo in the cubicle next to the guy who thinks up bizarre terms for bike parts, like jiffy stand and engine guard.
