Nice Book! Eric 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!
