Advice on a 2014 Low Rider
I'm looking at picking up a LR due to Harley killing off the Dyna line. I've always wanted one as a 2nd bike but I've never pulled the trigger. Here's the bike I'm looking at.

What would you realistically offer for a very low milage (800 miles) 2014 that has a stage 1 kit and aftermarket exhaust already installed?
Anything I should look for like past recalls and problem areas?
Thank you for your input.

I think 9k would be a good price for you, but I don't think a seller will entertain it. They'll more than likely mention the low miles, and upgrades like forwards, crash bar, exhaust/intake, sissy bar and luggage rack thinking it adds value, but in reality it doesn't because everyone's different and prefers different accessories. For instance, I don't like short shots, so to me the exhaust wouldn't add any value.

Thanks for the replies. I noticed the forward controls, being 5'10" I'm wondering if my legs are long enough to ride comfortably. I've never owned a bike with them.
I thought the price was fair but was going to offer $9500 out the door. The worst that can happen is they say no. It will need a 1K service that I would do myself since the warranty is long gone.
I'm going to take it for a test ride on Saturday.

Just my perspective so by all means do what you want, but it might be better to offer lower than 9500 so if they say no you can say you'll pay 9500 but that's your final offer. Who knows, you may get it even cheaper. What is the asking price?

Even with the low miles, it's still a four year old bike. Starting at $9K leaves more room to negotiate. A buyer can always raise his offer, it's a little tougher to back it down.......
