Just joined up because I'm going to be purchasing my first Harley.

Looking for a touring bike and really like Road Glides and found a nice 04 with 25k miles.

Anything I should look for? Tips for a first time buyer?

Thanks in advance!

Are you for real? Or are you just trolling the forum?

I think he was making a joke, over 12 years old with only 25,000 miles. Pretty sweet

Have the cam chain tensioners checked. Seems rule of thumb is 30K for a change to hydraulic from spring loaded. Might be able to knock price abit if not already done. otherwise enjoy the breeze.
