Default 1993 fxr...

Was checking listings for bikes for sale and came across a 1993 for for 5000.00. Nice looking bike, sounds too good to be true. New top end with only 300 miles on it. Any thoughts about this year make and model?

Great make. Great year. Greatest model. $5000 is about right if the rest of the bike is clean and in good condition. What's the total mileage on the bike?

VERY good price for this bike if the details are correct. Clean & straight FXR is hard to find

Snap it up! I got a '94 for $5300 but it needed some work as you would expect for an 18 year old bike. They are getting harder and harder to find, espcially if it's unmolested. It would be nice you can get some pictures and post here.

I paid $5000 for my '89 FXR. I'd ****** it up.

Looks like a FXLR, except the tank/gauges aren't right. As long as the frame hasn't been molested/cut, you're good to go.

New top end with only 300 on it???? Why would someone do all that work to it just to sell it? And/or what else is wrong or did not get done...

Sorry, I don't trust anyone when it comes to used bikes, that's all I've ever bought and I've about heard and seen it all...Do your homework and check it out good..
