1998 Harley-Davidson Softail 95th Anniversary Heritage Springer

Price:
$6,400
Summary:
Used 1998 Harley-Davidson Softail 50,328 miles
Location:
Worcester, MA
Description:

Great running "Old Boy" modeled after the 1948 Panhead, set up as a solo bike. Studded, 60's Harley Davidson, off white, heavy leather bags (don't they look great? I never got bags when I purchased this bike), chrome Panhead head covers, locking tool box, 40's style horn, specialty wheels, front fender tie-on racks, awesome rear fender luggage rack, and the much desired Kraut Cutter! Note, the original owner moved the turn signals from the handlebars to the light rack. I think it looks way more clean, problem for some will be the fact that the (ugly) windshield cannot be used. Note one of my last pics, where I am pointing to a good size groove that was made into the very back of both signal light casings, when they made this change and tried to run the windshield. You really have to look to notice this damage in real life, as there is so much shiny bling up there. Personally, I never missed a windshield, and because the previous owner stored it somewhere hot, the spray coating got all gnarly, and when I cleaned it with soap and water to get a pic, the 95th logo came off too. If you have to have a windshield, you'd have to move the signals back, and probably buy a clearer replacement shield....or just find a different bike. Also, the original floorboards and forward controls had been changed by previous owner, and replaced with some really slippery chrome pegs, so I had my mechanic install the floorboards on it now. One could replace this setup with original controls if desired. One of the tailpipes is blued pretty bad, which is why the firey skull cover is still on one side (the other is in the box of goodies included in this sale). There is a 1/4" round ding on one pipe where old owner must have dropped a wrench. No other dents. The cheap vinyl HD chose for the seat is crap. Note several splits starting at the front of the seat. Also two smart splits on the padded backrest. Two different upholsterers told me they could replace just the smooth portion of the seat and redo the back rest for around $100. Also I cut the fringe off the seat skirt... it was just too much. They call this color combination Peanut Butter and Jelly, it's a burgundy brown, with champagne trim. Matches the saddlebags, white walls and the custom dash bag perfectly. Most of these are trimmed in blue or red. A few swirls in the paint, but no damage to note. This is a heavy bike, but it sits low to the ground. I'm 5'8" and can sit with feet flat on the ground. Bike runs great, but it is definitely cold natured, and likes to be warmed up before a ride, or even if you let it sit for a couple hours. Loads of power, good brakes, new rear tire, gonna need a front tire soon. I have owned this honey since 2015, and put about 17,500 miles on. Never had any issues, always kept up oil changes and tune ups, and it's always been under roof. No leaks, no rattles, no problems. I have to quit riding due to shoulder and neck issues, or I'd keep this bike forever! Included in this sale is both an owner's manual and a shop manual, two leather tool bags, pipe cover, gloves, old pegs.
