1998 Harley-Davidson springer 

in Halifax, Dartmouth and Sackville 

Some bikes you ride. Some bikes you collect. Every once in a while, one comes along that's genuinely both ? and this 1998 Harley-Davidson Springer Softail FXSTS is exactly that.

With just 12,757 original miles on the clock, this Springer has been treated with the kind of care that's increasingly rare to find. It hasn't been hacked at, modified beyond recognition, or stripped of its character. It's an extremely original example of one of Harley's most iconic and sought-after models ? the classic Springer front end, the EVO engine, and that unmistakable silhouette that turns heads wherever it goes.

The quality custom paint is nothing short of stunning ? nearly perfect, with a shine that speaks for itself. The chrome and metal finishes throughout are exceptional, and the original "wrinkle black" engine paint is in lovely condition. This is a bike that has clearly been looked after by someone who cared deeply about it.

Under the tank, the EVO engine starts easily, runs beautifully, and sounds exactly the way a Harley should. A set of Screamin Eagle slash-cut mufflers paired with the original headpipes and crossover give it a deep, rich exhaust note that's hard not to love. The breathing side has been treated to a Screamin Eagle high-flow setup with a properly jetted carb ? it performs as good as it looks.

The upgrades that have been added are tasteful and practical: genuine Harley leather saddlebags in great condition, a comfortable Corbin studded touring seat, Kuryakyn ISO front and rear foot pegs, a chrome rear luggage rack, upgraded hand grips, and a detachable windshield included with the sale. A new battery, fresh fluids, and a fresh Dunlop front tire round out a bike that is genuinely ready to ride ? or display proudly.
Bikes like this don't come up often. Low-mile, well-preserved, collectible-grade Springers are increasingly hard to find, and this one is priced fairly at 13,495. Financing available.

Come see it in person at Autolane & Cycle, 25 Cobequid Road in Lower Sackville ? or call us at 902-865-3883. You won't be disappointed.
