2006 Harley-Davidson Heritage Softail®

In the saddle of a Harley-Davidson® Softail®, no road is ever lonely. Sunlight breaks through treetops to dance on chromed steel. The wind offers its constant stream of praise. And the world unfolds before you with open arms. Maybe it’s because nothing else on the road compares with the timeless hardtail styling ... and nothing else feels like a Twin Cam 88B™ power mill rigid-mounted to the frame. Counterbalancing takes care of all but the good vibrations. You and the motorcycle become one, united by an unbreakable bond. Then you feel the hidden rear suspension smooth out the ride with a full 4" of travel. There’s no denying you’re in the saddle of a rolling masterpiece. This year, the Softail family of custom motorcycles welcomes its latest member. We invite you to turn the page and take a gander at the clean lines of the new Heritage Softail®. Additionally, all new bobtail models get a shot of adrenaline in the hindquarters — a brawny, road-hugging 200mm tire under a new wider fender. More rubber to stick to the pavement. More style to keep the eyes glued. Everyone loves a clean-looking bike. The Heritage Softail® is a fine example. A motorcycle gleaming with simplicity. With a machine this pure, it’s only fitting we start with the heart and soul. Get a good look at the silver powder-coated Twin Cam 88B™ engine. It’s rigid-mounted and counterbalanced. Next feast your eyes on the hardtail styling. Any paint color you choose will look great with the machete tank graphics. A horseshoe oil tank and Laced wheels complete the no-nonsense look. The price is stripped-down, too — it’s the most affordable FL model. There’s even a detachable passenger pillion. Sometimes the less you see on a bike, the more there is to admire.
