FLSTSB Softail Cross Bones

The new FLSTSB Softail Cross Bones model was announced today at the Harley-Davidson Winter Dealer Meeting in San Antonio, Texas. With the retro look of a Springer front end and other post-war era bobber styling cues like a sprung solo seat, half-round rider footboards, Gloss Black round air cleaner cover and chopped front fender, the Softail Cross Bones rides with a Black and Polished Twin Cam 96B powertrain, 6-speed Cruise Drive transmission and truly unique Softail suspension.

The Cross Bones is the newest unique addition to Harley-Davidson’s Dark Customs line, which now includes six bikes in total. “Only Harley-Davidson could do this bike,” said Bill Davidson, Harley-Davidson Vice President of Core Customer Marketing. “It’s a motorcycle inspired as much by our early Knuckles and Pans, as by our desire to deliver innovative technology and content to make the ride today as magical and transforming as only a Harley-Davidson can. Cross Bones is a bike that makes me want to strap a blanket across the handle bar, hit the campgrounds on my next road trip and get totally in touch with what’s right about this
land.”

The FLSTSB Cross Bones is available in premium custom graphics with wicked striping and paint featuring new Dark Blue Pearl, Dark Blue Denim, as well as Vivid Black, Black Denim, Olive Pearl and Pewter Denim.
