Harley Davidson FLSTS Heritage Springer 95TH Anniversary Edition












Looking as pretty as ever, especially with its stunning Anniversary Edition paint, the Heritage Springer took a great leap back into the Harley-Davidson archive. The Heritage Springer was modeled after the 1948 Harley-Davidson Panhead, and its front end boasted an exposed spring suspension, full coverage floating front fender with nostalgic running light and a 1940s-style front-mounted horn. Other bygone-days features included fringe-style leather saddlebags, custom solo saddle seat and separate passenger pillion with chrome handle, crossover exhaust pipes with dual-fish-tail mufflers, "tombstone" tail light and whitewall tires. They all looked spectacular with 1999 color schemes. At the center of it all was the right-now performance of an Evolution V-twin (later came the Twin Cam 88B and fuel injection).

Harley were clearly onto a winner here: also on offer was a massive range of accessories, both for the bike and its rider, and friends. All of which helped boost the company's overall motorcycles and add-on-products sales across the globe.' The boost was due largely to the marketing focus on baby-boomers old enough to remember seeing the Sixties cult film "Easy Rider" the first time around. Although middle-aged men remain Harley's core market, the company has also broadened its appeal, to a growing band of female riders and city-slicker traders in their late twenties.
