Default is it worth $7,000.00?

he wont go any lower... his original price was $8500.00

1975 Electra Glide... that's the year i was born so that is one of the reasons i want it...

few oil leaks and a few scratches...

comes with another set of pipes, bags and a few other things...

I am also wondering how much is not original on this bike... any ideas??? not that its a big deal. I like its looks as is...

In my opinion,no. Are you going to pay cash for it? If not,I wouldn't think a bank would loan that much on it.

shovelheads are selling pretty cheap latley, under 5k.. but if he thinks it is worth that much he aint selling for less unless he needs the money.. i have a 72 that i paid 8500 for 10 years ago,i had it for sale for 10k 7 years ago. it didnt sell, i wont let it go for less then 7-8k now, i dont expect it to sell any time soon, so i will keep it..its long been paid for

For the same amount of cash I would pick up a 1996 or newer Evo powered Fatboy or Heritage.

You can't sell a bike for how much you spent on it. Some of us throw huge amounts at ours but you can't add that to the selling price.

the entire motorcycle market is quickly shrinking and it doesnt matter if he has 30k in the bike, its only worth so much, take your 7k and buy a newer evo glide, youll be much happier,
