883 w/1200 jugs and buell heads
hey gang. I had originally posted in welcome newbie but didn't get any info. lifelong rider first time harley owner. goin to pick it up from my buddy tomorow. its a 97 883 sportster w 1200 top end and buell heads. 6800 miles. so ive got a ton of questions. ill start by asking if i should expect a decrease in reliability due to the modifications that have been made to it? secondly, is it worth $3000? its in really nice shape, but im not sure of the milage. i know thats a hard one to answer w/out seeing it but is that price in the ballpark? lastly, aside from the obvious like tires, brakes, belt, etc., what should i look for before i buy?

If it's in good shape - good tires, brakes, belt, cables and paint- then that price seems fair. Not sure about dependability. A lot of variables there. Good luck and welcome to the forum

The parts should work together fine. No reliability issues there. The variables are who put it all together and their qualifications. Also how was it ridden and cared for?
