I also found a 1995 electra for $7500 but it has 86,000 miles

 

That's way too many miles for that kind of money. Stay away from it.
Try n nail down the approximate miles on the road king. I wouldn't touch a 95 with 86,000 miles.

I got my 97 Electra glide classic for 8995.00 with 24,000 original miles.

 

ok thats what I was thinking

 

That is the wrong tank for a RK, the speedo should be in the tank console and thats an EG tank console. That might be the speedo above the bars, but that was usually a tach on the police models. I dont see a bumper on the rear, so there may not be any bracing between the bags like there should be, but they are police bags. I also dont think that the police models came with a naked front fender. The price doesnt seem out of line, worth a look.

 

hey guys how about this one this looks to be like a nice

thanks for all your help

 

Looks to be a pretty nice bike, I'm not a fan of fuel injection and it has the MM injection on it. But I've heard that if its stock it works fairly well and if it becomes a problem, changing it to a carb is pretty easy. Again worth a look.

 

While I agree I'm not a fan either of fuel injected bikes that particular was better than the first three years of efi on the twinkies.

It's still an evo which is the big thing. Love the color...looks very clean, stock...pipes probably sound good.....fine example of a late 90's road king .....

I like this one best so far. If I was going to look considering he prices this one would be top on my list .hes right too that police bike is not stock....I'd be inclined to stay clear of it...could be a headache......might be missing brackets and the speeo is all wrong so mileage is a mystery....too many red flags for me.

Go check out the green one. Could be just right. Good luck keep us posted, if you find others keep asking questions, huge knoweledge base here on ths forum......especially here in evo land, and none of us wants to see a brother get a bad deal.

Also pay real close attention to the left side of the bike, I always get nervous when people on Craigslist Get 4pictures to post and they post 4 pictures of just one side of the bike .......it makes me think they're hiding something on the left side of the bike. Probably nothing, but still look that side over for something. Just in case.

Something else, ask if it's stage 2 or 3 .....being fuel injected I'm curious how well it runs, I see the discoloration on the pipes, right under the right saddlebag , those are drag pipes for sure , drag pipes are cool, but it's really important to the valves that the bike be tuned to the open restriction or lack thereof on drag pipes. It's probably gonna be really loud..,.when you drive it be sure to go on the highway.....make sure it's not loosing power across the mid range band , 3rd -4th gears.

I wanna be clear here, those drag pipes , if tuned to the bike, are perfectly fine! If you like it loud which I bet it will be then its all good. But as long as its tuned right, it is fine and mechanically acceptable. Just some additional food for thought.
