INGO Harley Davidson Guys:
I have always wanted a Harley because I love the history and sound of the bike. I'm not a biker or rider in the truest definition of either word, but I've been riding motorcycles for about 20 years and have owned four different bikes.
I have the opportunity to buy a 1998 Road Glide with ~69,000 miles on it. It is in great shape and my friend is wanting $6,500 for it. Can you guys tell me from your experience if this is a good deal? I've done Google searches and the prices are all over the place, but I've not found one lower than $7,300.
Here is the email I received from my friend describing the bike:
1998 Road Glide
1 of 800 95th Anniversary models
69,000 +/- miles
Had had synthetic oils most of it's life
Almost new tires
Mine does not have the chrome brake covers...
Bike needs nothing other than a rider!
Like I was telling you, I had it detailed last year and it looks almost showroom.... it does not look like a 15 year old bike. It rinds perfect.
So, what do you think?
