Default whats the general view of the night train?

The dealer offered to pay off my sporty if I wanted to make the move up to an 07 night train with only 890 miles on it. I dont know much about this bike, other than I like its looks. Thoughts?

Its the best looking model ever, of course.

Only 890 miles for a 2007 is a little odd, and I'd be looking for a good explanation and evidence that its ligit.

I agree.. 890 on a 9 year old bike.. Thats hard to believe. Id get as much info and history on that as possible. That being said i had an 09 Nighttrain and hate myself every day for letting it go. One of the nicest stock bikes ever made IMO..

My homeboy just got a 1999 Road King with 1,300 miles on it. One owner, guy just must have never liked riding. There are people that buy a bike and never end up riding it. Mid. life maybe. Anyways, NT a great bike and i really dig the look

Ask to see the service records for the bike.

It should have had the service done once a year regardless of the low miles.

That would not be enough to satisfy me, in addition, that in itself could be a problem if it was not correctly preserved for that exceptionally long abnormal storage period.
