i really want a elctra glide i currantly have a 94 heritage but i have a guy that has a 89 elctra that he wants to trade me and throw 800 in cash with his bike the top end was rebuilt 7 years ago showed me all reciepts for it the bike runs and drives nice his milage 75000 mine 18000 is it worth it or stay away thanks for the help
That's probably my fault. I told him to post in the Evo forum since both bikes are Evo bikes and the Evo guys would be better equipped to give him all the whys/why nots on that '89.
No matter what anybody says you will either trade or not and have to live with the result.
I guess it really boils down to how bad you want the Electra.
Anything wrong with it can be fixed.
This is going to be a decision made totally on your own and it ain't going to be easy. I have an 89 flhtp and my wife has an 89 Heritage. Although I haven't put a lot of hiway miles on the Heritage as I ride my own bike I have ridden her bike for some quick rides for testing purposes and even some shear fun but I still like the feel of my flhtp and the weight it carries. Then again hers seems to have a bit more pep because of it being lighter and
also handles a lot easier because of its low centre of gravity.
sorry guys i messed up some day i will get caught up on this computor stuff lol
You didn't mess up at all. It's the guys that browse by showing all new posts and don't bother to note what section they are in before replying that muck things up.
