Default 2011 Wide Glide - considering purchasing this

Have a Road Glide Ultra, looking for a second bike for easier solo riding, wind in the face, with a great classic look. Came across this showroom condition 2011 Wide Glide not too far from where I live. 2-owner bike, stored inside with a collection of incredible bikes, 14K miles, new tires, new battery and new fluids. 100% stock except the Vance & Hines straight shots. Can buy for $9.5K - $10K, looking for opinions. The orange paint is ridiculously perfect, and rare!

I had to make a tough decision on getting rid of my 2011 Wide Glide. After I made a list of what I wanted in a Dyna, I was better off starting with a Low Rider. The only thing I didn't like about the Wide Glide was a larger turning radius. The cost of 2011 and up Dynas has gone up since I sold mine a little more than 2 years ago. The pick you posted is beautiful.
2011 Wide Glide, sold

2015 Low Rider, current

That's nice! I just did kinda the same thing. only I SOLD my Street Glide and bought a 2012 Super Glide Custom. Just got tired of the weight, and bulkiness of a bagger. Riding the Super Glide feels like riding a motorcycle again! That's a good price, too! I say go for it. But, a warning, your Road Glide may sit in the garage a lot more!

Sweet. Be careful on those new tires. They’re slippery for 50-100 miles.

That's a gorgeous motorcycle! Enjoy it! I'm a little biased, but I love Dynas! Mine:
