2004 Harley-Davidson Softail® Heritage Softail Classic

My 04 has sequential fuel injection, no carburator. In your specs you list only carb. Maybe you mean carb is standard?

I have owned several bikes from Moto Guzzi , Gold Wings ,BSA, Suzuki's and one Harley. Most were faster, better braking, better cornering. None were as comfortable as my 2004 Heritage.It has enough power and enough braking to make it safe and allow it to do what it was designed to do. The feeling ... the bike gives you when riding and the sound and the look make this bike by far my choice over any have owned or for that matter ever ridden.

I'm gonna start with this. Highway pegs or crashbars, whatever you want to call them, saved my life.I'm gonna keep it simple. 20mph school zone-grade school getting out at that exact time. A van running a stop sign and broadsiding me jyst as I was heading home. Saved a child's life that's yhe most ... important thing. Flew me out to a trauma 1 hospital. 2 months in the hospital with a third of my leg ripped off. A little souvenier in her bumper countless surgeries later as well as 11 months chomping at the bit to ride and no bike and can't ride a 2 wheeler again. First time in 40 years I've ever been down. Hopefully one more surgery and I'll be working on walking and riding again. Now my friends make fun of me cuz I ride sticking my head out the window. Lol. Biggest smile since moments before that van. $1, 000, 000.00 in bills and no money for me or a new ride.with a leg like mine I wish I could have the stability of a SPYDER!!!!

Lots of friends made fun of me when I bought my Heritage, but after makeing several trips to ROT and HOG Rallies, they changed their tunes. My rear never ot tired of being in the saddle, while they requested we stop every hour or so to rest.....claimed they needed a smoke. Yeah, right! I can carry ... all I need for the rally in my on board bags. She has plenty of power for what I love to do and that is RIDE! Usually I remove the shield so I get the full on force of the wind in my face....like they say, "Only a biker knows why a dog sticks it's head out the window."

Love to ride......Live to ride.
