Have a chance to pick up a 94 FXR. Here's the pro and cons:

Pro's:
S&S 113 crate motor installed in 2001.
Pro One Chrome wheels, matching pulley
Chrome brake rotors
Chrome swingarm
Drag bars internally wired
All braided lines
Custom candy black ghost flame paint
3 corbin seats
Bub pipes
Chrome outer primary, starter, lower legs
Wide glide front end
New battery
Low miles on Avon tires

Cons:
Odometer doesn't work and hasn't for a long time. No way of really knowing how many miles are on the engine. Need new Speedo/Odometer combo.
Triple trees and lower legs need re chroming
Carb won't hold an idle (probably just needs a small adjustment)
No directionals.

Asking $7,500. Not sure if the juice is worth the squeeze on this one.

 

Not to me it wouldn't be.

 

 

Agree with texas hill country - unless you want this style of significantly altered FXR. For example, the wide glide front end would not be a "pro" to many FXR enthusiasts who,like me, spent time and labor to restore one to OEM. For the $7,500, you could get an FXR about which you would know more of the history (odometer) and be able to modify exactly the way you want.

 

You lost me at "chrome swingarm".

But that's just me.

If you're looking for an FXR, $7500 will get you a near-pristine, unmolested example with quite a bit of cash left over. If you're looking for a bike that someone else has already hot-rodded, then maybe this one works.

 

I'll sell you my stock FXR 3 with 11000 miles for that price ,right now.Come and get it.Central New York.Needs rider.

 

Where in cny are you. I used to live in Poolville. Southern Madison county. God, I loved it there....

Some pretty country around your old stompin' grounds.
