2007 Harley-Davidson FLSTSC Softail Springer Classic

Story by Mark Barnett, Photos by Frank Rangel

There’s not much of a story to tell on this 2007 Harley-Davidson FLSTSC Softail Springer Classic but I thought I’d share the photos with you since it is so well done. Everything from the beach bars, the satin, non-glossy paint, the ribbed derby and ignition covers, and the numerous blacked out pieces screams nostalgic. The first owner installed a 95” kit and tons of Genuine H-D accessories like the footpegs, Nostalgic footboards, grips, blacked out levers, and engine guard. He went to the aftermarket for the heavy-duty spoked wheels. Overall, the bike is a really good example of an owner-modified Harley custom. His accessories stayed consistent with his theme and the overall appearance approached the artistic as it does on many one-off customs.

To shoot the bike for this report, staff photographer Frank Rangel and Motorclothes purchasing manager Sarah Quinones rode down to a home a couple of miles from our shop owned by Sarah’s aunt. This nostalgic Softail Springer fit well with the southwestern adobe home. If we’d shot these photos in black and white, I bet most of you would have thought they were photos from the fifties before you tuned into the rocker covers, belt drive, and other tell-tale signs of modernity.
