Default RE: Used mileage

Guess i could drop the price enough where someone would bite. Found someone who wanted to trade their Mustang for a bike. Called him and he said he would love to have a Heritage. Asked me the mileage and when i told him he said thanks but no thanks.

Default RE: Used mileage

Most people are scared of so called high milage Harleys because you so often see ads that say new top end or engine rebuilt and the bike only has 35-50,000 miles on it. My sporty has over 80,000 n the original motor and is fine- no oil leaks etrc. but I maintain it properly. Hubby has 3 biukes in the garge with over 100,000 miles on their original motors. To me milage is not a big deal if the bike has been properly taken care of.
