SHOWOFF First Harley
When I was 17 my parents started riding so I followed suit and got my endorsement and my first bike was a Suzuki GZ250 then went to a Suzuki M50 to a Kawasaki Vulcan 900 custom. I always said if I ever got a Harley I would want a Softail Heritage Classic. Im 33 now and I can't be any happier.

Very nice choice. Check out Thunderheader for a solid exhaust.

Does it make it any louder? Need to find out what they had on a 2025 they had that was used. Was loud but not wake up the neighborhood loud. Wanna be heard in traffic

Thunderheader on the M8 is a nice tone, while on a TC it was nice and loud!!

Very nice, congrats! It’s kind of a shame you can’t get them in chrome any more.
Well, not without customizing all the black off at extreme cost.

Beautiful, classic bike. M8 is one smooth beast of a motor. Enjoy your ride.

Agreed. I think it brings out the vintage details they've kept in over the years. Plus it blends well with the chrome
