Product Description
Harley-Davidson s Softail line is one of Harley s best-selling series, and in fact is one of the most popular large-displacement motorcycle series in the world. No question, the Softail defines the cruiser genre, the best-selling segment in the U.S. motorcycle market. Combine the bikes popularity, their beautiful design, and the relative few books on the subject, and Harley-Davidson Softail is the perfect choice for Harley enthusiasts.

This Softail bible discusses the story behind the original Softail chassis, built and marketed by Bill Davis before being purchased by Harley, and continues by focusing on the various Softail models, such as the Heritage, Springer, Fat Boy, and the latest Softail series, which uses the innovative dual counterbalanced Twin Cam 88B engine.

If you're into knowing about the Softail and its history, then this is your book.
Describing the history of the invention of the "softail" by Bill Davis (and how he hardly made any money out of it...)and furthermore the models that Harley built around this principle with nice photos up to 2003.
Not describing serialnumbers, colours and modelyear-differences, but for general softail-info a very nice book!
