I believe that seat is original, if it's not, it's the closest I've ever seen to Oem. My86 came with the same Oem seat but without the strap handle, still have it....

 

Can you post a pic of your Oem seat/bike ????

 

The seat pan(s) could be original but the covering ( at least according to my parts catalog) doesn't look original.

My seat is not original so I can't post a pic of an original.

 

I paid $7000 for the same bike about 10 years ago. It had a freshly rebuilt motor with new cam and stroked S&S crank. I had to put about $1000 more into it for starter, clutch and charging system upgrades. Kick starting a large, high compression engine is not easy.

As to value, condition is everything on a bike that old. If you like wrenching you will love that bike.

 

I am going to check it out as it is not far from here but from the pics it looks clean .
Weird bike looks like an old softail but it isnt kick electric start and looks mainly stock thats why I am into it.
Thanks

 

As said before - where is the link. I've never seen a WideGlide that looked like a Softail. Not sure what that means.

 

It's probably this one.

I copied a pic dont know how to get a link on here

 

I was waiting for ya Rob,I always enjoy looking at your Sig pic..


As for the softail look.... with a 21" front wheel,5 gallon tank, fat bob rear fender, same handle bars.... if you don't notice the rear shocks right away, they are similar, within the same year anyway...

 

OK - I saw that link before, but not by the OP. He confirmed with an attached pic.
Still not sure what is meant by looks like a Softail. The shocks on a Dyna are pretty obvious. Yes they had one the same color, flip fender, etc.
Yes it looks a little crusty, check for pitting on the chrome. Those little thing add up quick.
As far as a value, it's what it is worth to you, could be a nice bike to ride and enjoy, not really a collector item.
Check it out in person and bid accordingly. Wish you the best.
