Since it’s release in 1984, the Softail has become one of the best know words associated with the Harley Davidson.As you now, the softail bike is blessed with a moveable system of rear suspension. It has springs and shock absorbers to cushion the bumps and make the ride smooth. And yet all this is neatly tucked away out of sight at the back of the Harley. So the casual onlooker would think you are riding one of the classic bikes of the past with their rigid frames (or hard tails). They are the classic bike with modern suspension. No wonder the Softail is in such enduring demand.And where there is demand there are high prices. True in the case of a Harley Softail, where a bike on ebay with a low mileage could be listed with a buy now price of $16,000.This is the sort of bike you would entrust into the hands of professional motorcycle movers when you move out of state because of your new job or promotion across country. These are bikes to enjoy and care for!
