Next! I looked at cycle trader and I am in line after seeing several low riders with more miles and asking about as much. Guess its about the right buyer to stumble across. It will sell no doubt !

If you say so. I'd wait for the possible M8 in the 2018 model year myself.

I'll be 68 next month. About 3 yrs ago I decided that I was going to take up Surfing again as it had been one of my favorite pastimes about 50 yrs ago.

I found out that I had lost some "pop" in my pop-up (jumping to a standing position as you catch the wave). I went on a diet, and started going to the ymca and working out on a regular basis. Although I now live in the "mountains" I still hit the gym "religiously" and I can tell you the combination of working out and diet shed about 40 yrs. No aches and pains, much more strength, slimmed down, and enjoy riding like I did 50 yrs ago, splitting my riding time between my HD and my Bandit 1250S.

Obviously if your exhaustion is something else, getting back into shape may not do much, but if you're like me, it could make a huge difference and you could enjoy your LR again without the exhaustion.

what you need to do is to look at bikes that have sold and what they sold for. you can ask for whatever, but most people are going to pass right over that.
