No skulls... my philosophy; if you want a Harley that is different then anyone else. LEAVE IT STOCK

I’m 65 and I ride an 08 softail custom. The handlebars are referred to as 4in mini apes. I have rode the dragon and she was a dream. She is now 11 years old and going strong.

"you can start it up without waking the dead". Proceeds passing in front of a graveyard. This is gold 😁👍

[harleyhooks]

yes! I grew up with softails and they are my absolute favorite. My dad has one and it had been promised to me since I was born pretty much. Its always going to be my favorite type of Harley. Harley's are the only motorcycle for me.

Bought my 09 soft tail custom used, thing has more skulls than a graveyard

My neighbor down the street rode a 1986 Softy Custom when I was in high school, and to me, it's what a Harley is supposed to look and sound like. Thirty years later, my first Harley is an old Road King, so go figure...

I’m 68 and I bought my 09 Softail new. Rode many of the other models that just didn’t do it for me. This one just fit and I was instantly at home on it. I got a shorty backrest for mine, the 09 has a short backrest with a sissybar for the rider. I like the low seat and the forward pedals, and the handlebars are just back where it all fits me PERFECT !!

That is why I like my Kawasaki vn 1600. No too quiet, no too loud, but I get myself in piece. It is my therapy for stress. Thank you for your videos

I have a 2009 Softail Custom for about 3 months now and love it. Not much on freeway riding but tried it at 75 mph. and that 6th gear is so nice. No vibration just nice and smooth. Also I agree on the long trip statement you made because my arms started to ache after about 50 miles riding. But seat is very comfortable.

Hands down my favorite bike, I grew up on movies like Stone Cold with Brian Bosworth and Beyond the Law as a kid.

Great video! I too own a Softail Custom and I will never part with it! My 92 has both a perfect riding fit for me AND it runs the ever dependable Evo motor. Fun to ride and super easy to wrench on!! Long live the FXSTC!!

My dad has an 03 night train with the older 88 cubic inch engine you mentioned. He hasn’t ridden it in years and I asked him if I could have it when the time comes. He said yes as long as I learn how to ride first. So, as soon as I can I’m gonna buy a grom and rip that thing like a squid till I get out of college and can go pick up the Harley.

I picked up a 2000 standard with 18” apes. Nothing but fun on the road, I love it.

I just bought a 2010 Harley Davidson Softail Custom with 19k for $6, 000. Did I get a good deal? It's in great shape, drove it an hour home. And had zero issues with it.

Love my 2007 softail custom! Great bike!

[Rich.Fishing]

I ride a 2014 Heritage Softail. Love my bike very comfortable. Just rode to Red River, NM great ride

That particular bike has always been my dream bike but even used they hold their value better than most others.

My first HD was a 1985 Softail, rigid mount, 4 speed, chain drive with the optional kick start ! I bought it used in early 1988, had 750 miles on it . I sold it and bought a new 1988 Low Rider later in the year . The Softail was a cool ride but rode like a tank ! I wish I still had them both…

[johncleaver]

Ty for showing one of the best bikes on the market. Also God bless you. Thanks for bringing God back into the world. If it wasn't for Christ we would be dead.

My dream Harley, alongside the Dyna Wide Glide. Any Softail Custom or Dyna Wide Glide with the Evo motor gets me going. I hope to own either bike SOMEDAY.
