It's not as bad as that one pic makes it look. From what I saw, she's pristine except for that fender.

Not a great deal for a neglected 95. Same money would fetch a nicer low mi 98 model.

Is it a BAD sign that she had to push the button on the starter to fire it up?

That's how I start mine I'm too lazy to chase down the bad connection.

It probably means the previous owner didn`t know how to troubleshoot a starting issue.

Having a solenoid button as a backup is not a bad idea, but it should not be the normal way of starting the bike.

We looking at the same bike? That FatBoy is one wrinkled fender (and a bit of tarnish on the forks, and a replaced timing cover) away from being showroom shape, or at least that's how the pics look to me.

Wheel mags look a bit weathered like its been kept outside. When I see low miles and not much attention to keeping up the details like starter, fender ect, I thinking neglect. $5k will buy a nice 98 where I live.

I agree, there is quite a bit of corrosion on the aluminum parts. Looks like it sat out.

That bikes in my area. I’ve seen it on Craigslist a couple of times. Low Mileage for the year is appealing. Unsure about that dealership though. I’ve seen a couple bikes with bad rust for sale at that place.
