Default 1995 fxd opinions?

So, I have a chance at a 1995 fxd with around 40,000 miles. The dude I know and he wants around $5200 for it. Really nice bike, well maintained. T header new tires and other than that pretty stock. Runs really well.

Couple of questions, what's the general opinion on 95 dynas? They good bikes? I had an FXDB in the past but know nothing about the older ones. How's the price sound? It's in really nice shape, just been ridden.

The other thing that I wanted to know is there a decent aftermarket for these dynas? I would like to eventually black the whole bike out and turn it into an fxdx-like bike (quarter fairing, triple disc, mx bars, etc...), my own t sport kind of thing maybe. Are all of the parts that I would need for suspension (lifting) and that kind of stuff out there? Could you guys link to some websites so that I can see the stuff made for this year before I buy?

94-up EVOs are the best years for that platform (96-up considered best of the best), and the dyna chassis is an excellent choice to build a bike the way you want it. There are TONS of aftermarket choices as well. As long as the bike has been maintained and cared for 40k is no big deal, and the price seems very reasonable.
You probably will get more answers about this scoot over on the EVO forum. Come join us, very knowledgeable group of fellows over there. Good luck!

I second that . They are knowledgeable and nice. I am asking questions on 1996 & 1997 Dyna Low Riders and they have been great. Look it up on Kelly Blue Book or Nada guides...also check craig's list too to get an idea on that pricing. I'm in PA and that seems very fair to me.
