1997 Harley-Davidson Softail Custom

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

Introduced during the height of Harley-Davidson’s Evolution-engine era, the 1997 Harley-Davidson Softail Custom (FXSTC) embodied the timeless styling and laid-back attitude that defined American cruiser culture in the 1990s.

Powered by Harley’s proven 1,340cc Evolution V-twin, the Softail Custom combined dependable performance with the unmistakable rumble that riders had come to expect from Milwaukee’s most famous motorcycles.

What set the FXSTC apart was its classic custom appearance. The hidden rear suspension preserved the look of a rigid-frame chopper while delivering a more comfortable ride, a hallmark of the Softail line since its introduction. Chrome accents, laced wheels, pullback handlebars, and a low-slung profile gave the bike an authentic factory-custom personality.

This one-owner ’97 Softail Custom has a raked front-end appearance with a steel double-cradle frame, hidden rear mono-shock suspension, cartridge-style front fork suspension, spoked 21” front and 16” rear wheels, and disc brakes. The bike is finished in black with Harley-Davidson logos on its teardrop-shaped fuel tank, and additional details include special chrome badging, low-profile two-up seat, black LeatherLyke upholstery and saddle bags, and a five-speed manual transmission.
