RE: Anniversary models $$
If it helps I just bought #186 of 1340 back in Dec. Had 9k miles on it. I was having trouble finding a value for it that I thought was valid thru NADA or Kelly. Went to my credit union and bank w/ VIN # they came back about $2k over what other sources said value was. At least it gave me a warm fuzzy feeling about it all.

I have bike below. NADA shows a little higher value for this model as an anniversary model. The value to me is more because of the extras I have on it and I have only seen 2 other 95th anniversary wide glides.

RE: Anniversary models $$
mtnlvr,
Nice bike. I like your wheels. My bike is set up more for trips with detachable saddle bags, Mustang seat, etc. One day I will put some custom wheels on mine. We have a group going to ride the Blue Ridge Parkway in a couple of weeks. No, we do not trailer, we ride. 16 hours to Cherokee, NC from here. No I have never been to Minnesota so I haven't seen yours. I have only visibly seen 2 others. I have seen them in cycle trader for sale. I live in the Lake Okeechobee area of south Florida. How about you? Do you see many of them? I see plenty of the 95th anniversary fatboys, sportsters,and FL bikes.What number is yours?I hope you like yours as much as I like mine.

I've got #1558 of 1998. I do some touring well...Boss Bags, T-Bag, detach sissybar / rack, as well as the original seat if I'm going a long way. I'm looking into fabricating some brackets for some mid-control mini footboards for those longer trips too.
I've seen one other in person (see below) at a monthly Minneapolis monthly gathering called First Thursday. I did not see what number this one was.

RE: Anniversary models $$
Hey mtnlver,
How many miles on your bike? Mine 24,000. I traded a 65 Mustang for it in March of 2003. It had 8935 on it then. I do not get to ride as much as I want with my job. I visibly saw one in West Palm Beach a couple of years ago and the other belongs to Chief James Billie of the Seminole tribe in Hollywood Fl. Neither of those bikes are in as good a sape as mine. I do most of my own wrenching as long as as it is not too technical. I thought about getting another seat for bike nights, but haven't yet. What kind of seat is yours? It looks cool. I am also trying to find a high sissy bar that I can place some red onyx in it then attach a chrome peace signto it. I grew up in the late 60s and early 70s. I have extended my forward controls 3" with the Kuraykn extensions, removed the stock handlebar riser and installed a 6" riser with polyurethane bushings. It gets the mini apes up higher. My son likes your pull backs, but I like the ape hanger style myself. Yea, the old chopper look. Tell me more about your bike as far as extras and post more pics.
