Harley-Davidson Heritage Springer (FLSTS) review

The kind of motorcycle that makes you want to become a desperado and ride off into the sunset in search off cheap Mexican beer and women
Terrific styling that will impress even the most hardened Harley-phobe.
Lack of fairing makes distance work a chore unworthy of the comfort factor

Shiny chrome Springer front-end works really well style-wise with the funky saddlebags and whitewall rubber - a timeless timewarp.
