So, I've been wanting a Road Glide for a while now but they have always been a little out of my budget. Well today I came across a 2011 with 35k miles for $14,000. The place selling it always has bikes at good prices, but this seems TOO good. Has a quick detach tour pack, blacked out forks, and a Road Glide Custom windshield, which makes me think it may have been wrecked at one point. I know the miles are kind of high, but would that kind of mileage drive the price down that much?

I know I could get an older bike for the same price with lower miles, but I do a lot of traveling on expressways and would really like to have the 6 speed. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

 

Good price and miles aren't real bad,I think you'd do good.IMO

 

Mine had miles like that when I got it.. No issues.. Go for it.. Plenty of people with bikes with 100k

 

Looks good to me, did you check blue book value?

 

That's the issue. It's about 3k under blue book. I'm afraid I'll buy it only to find out later it has major issues. It's about 4 hours away so if I go look at it, I'll either have to buy or pass right then.

 

 

Is it a private seller?

 

No, it's a dealership called J&J Motors. Anyone ever heard of them? I'm wondering if they fix up wrecked/bought at auction bikes. They always seem to have higher mileage bikes at really good prices.

 

Wouldn't they have to disclose that?

 

You will learn to hate those wheels. Checking and filling with air are difficult tasks unless angled valve stems have been installed.
