Default Just bought a 2008 Street Glide. How did I do on the deal $?

Just picked up a 2008 Street Glide Black Pearl 12,500 miles, true dual Rinehart exhaust, upgraded led headlight and all turn signals, lots of chrome add ons, kuryakyn grips and highway pegs for $11,500.

I just had to put $375 into new front rotors and pads because there was a nasty pulsating from warped rotors. And it's going to need a new rear tire soon.

Bike is mint otherwise. How'd I do?

If you like it and can't quit looking at it then it's worth twice that to you. You did good. Enjoy and ride safe.

Usually the time to find out if it's a good deal is before you buy it.
J/K, it looks like you did just fine. Congrats, very nice looking ride.

Sounds fair to me. Most importantly is that you are happy with your decision.

I agree with everyone, if you like and can't wait till your next ride then it's a good deal.

If you love the bike, and don't miss the $$, you did great!

If you bought the bike as a financial investment, you got hosed.

Best thing, after the cash has changed hands, is to not think about whatacouldabeen.
