Default 1995 wide glide

Local indy dealer has 1995 FXDWG for 5900$. That is a little below KBB. So deal is good. I have not seen this bike in person, only internet ad. Ad says bike has 1000 miles on it!! Not sure if that is typo or real mileage. If correct mileage, this is an awesome deal in my mind. On the other hand, what could be drawbacks if any on a 20 year old bike with this few miles on it?
Thoughts?
Ride safe and have fun

I'd be worried about the fork seals and every gasket in the motor.

At this point age becomes a factor more than miles. Things deteriorate when not used. I bought a 2002 WG with 16000 miles and it had sat a lot too. After riding it awhile the rocker box has developed a leak at rear cylinder. Seal probably went bad from sitting around to much. Anyway you get the point I'm making. If your wanting a cheap big twin ready to ride this bike may disappoint you so just be prepared. If it's a project bike you want to tinker with then may be a cool project.
