Rare I don't know about. I have about 15 for sale here locally from 3500-9000 for the fxr4. Good bikes? Yes! If it were me I would go over that thing with a fine tooth comb before I bought it (leak down, compression, trans check, bushings, everything) or if you don't know how to do that stuff take it to a shop for a once over. I wouldn't buy it though if he did not have the receipts or records from the trans rebuild and new motor

FXLR one of my faves of all HD. Factory rebuild, good to go. I would strip all the crap off that bike and make a solo hot rod. At your size it will feel like a sporty. I have built 4 0r 5 FXRs, They are Fast and handle like a sport bike. The price is not out of line for a classic. You can do anything, from a street tracker to a bobber to a chopper. My last FXR would wheelie like a sport bike. I will add another to my collection, sold my 92 for $8k last year, there is a cult for the FXR. Good luck.

Seems like an awful lot of rebuilding to me..... My guess is that the bike has had the **** run out of it.......

Picture me slapping you upside your head for not buying it!!!!!!!!!!

If I bought it I would turn it into a replica of the bike in Harley Davidson and the Marlboro man.

I have been at meets with hundreds of bikes, mine was the only FXR. Main street Daytona, my wife counted 5 FXRs. A good clean bike will gain value, They don't make em anymore, and never will. If i could find a bone stock low milage FXLR i will pay $10,000. Any out there???
