1996 Harley Davidson FLSTC Heritage Soft Tail

Highlights

  • Tastefully lightly modified
  • On the button and ready to go
  • Straight through pipes so you can hear that big V twin rumble 

The Appeal

What we have here is a lightly accessorised Heritage Soft Tail Harley that’s on the button and ready to ride away.

Used lightly over the last few years by the current owner who’s just got to grips with selling as he’s just not finding the time to ride it.

Yes, it’s clean and tidy, the chrome shines, but it’s there to be ridden through the summer and enjoyed whatever the weather.

The Exterior 

  • Tank & rear mudguard re-sprayed
  • Wheel rims powder coated and re-built with stainless steel spokes
  • Warning lights moved onto the handlebar clamp
  • Aftermarket LE Pera seat
  • Straight through exhaust pipes
  • Gold metallic bar grips
  • Gold metallic foot boards
  • Oil temperature gauge
Overall, the exterior is in a tidy & useable condition and looking attractive with its red paintwork and complemented by gold wheels and accessories.

There is a little scuffing to the rear mudguard paint and additionally the handlebars, but chrome work is generally good with just a little light scratching in places.

Switchgear is complete, with some wear to the faces as expected & we’re told by the vendor that all electrical elements works as expected.

The warning lights have been moved to the handlebar clamp from the tank , for easier viewing.

The Mechanics

  • Invoice for an engine rebuild from HD Leeds in 2010
  • Up rated Camshaft fitted
  • Servicing & oil changes have been carried out by the vendor
  • Aftermarket air filter fitted
We’re told by the vendor that new High Compression pistons were also fitted when the engine was rebuilt.

When being moved around for the photoshoot, the Harley started well and engaged gear easily. 

The vendor informs us that it rides very well and is a spirited performer out on the open roads, with the suspension working well and the brakes performing as required.

Tyres appear to be in good order although the vendor suggests they may need changing due to age, the drive belt also appears to be in good condition.

He also tells us that the rear suspension units have been supplemented & upgraded with aftermarket parts.

Summary

This is a comfy, quick, big engine Harley with a gorgeous 1340cc V twin engine beating at its heart.
