Harley-Davidson Softail description

I’m the second owner of this absolutely stunning 1997 FLSTS.  The most unique part of this background is the custom factory paint that the owner was able to obtain.  The first owner was a high ranking executive with a national cosmetics company.  He knew the CEO of HD at the time he purchased the stock bike.  He contacted them to do a custom paint scheme that he knew he wanted.  They declined initially but decided to pull one guy off of the line to do the painting.  HD must have liked the color scheme so much that they did sell some of the same color tins in 1998 as special order limited edition ones.  These tins are not that, they were custom painted for the original owner.  He also sent the seat and front bag out to California to have the trim matched to the paint color.  There are no side bags with this bike.

Once he got the bike back he spent about $7K redoing the engine and other items on the bike.  Features a Mikuni carb that was dynoed to a max HP of 90.3 (paperwork included).  The bike has only 4,696 original miles on it and it’s absolutely beautiful.

Other features:

Lots of original HD nostalgia chrome pieces

Samson fishtail exhausts

Front and rear fender tips (original HD authentic)

Solo luggage rack and docking kit (original HD authentic)

HD toolbox

HD mini tach

Twisted spokes

Like new tires by HD (white wall engraved)

All original paperwork and service records

This isn’t an inexpensive bike and it’s only for the true collector who can appreciate its beauty and uniqueness.  Please email me via ebay with any questions you may have.  Good luck!

Marisa Miller Takes Harley-Davidson Rider’s Edge Training [Video]

Tue, 26 Jul 2011

If there’s one thing I like more than motorcycles, it’s hot supermodels, such as Victoria’s Secret Angel, Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue covergirl and Harley-Davidson spokesmodel Marisa Miller. Miller has appeared in a number of promotional spots for The Motor Company in recent years, most notably for the Harley-Davidson V-Rod Muscle and to support Harley-Davidson’s U.S. Military Appreciation programs (one of Miller’s “American Bombshell” post cards is currently my computer’s desktop wallpaper).
