Default Good Deal? 2007 Street Bob, less 3200 miles

Currently owns by a 20 yrs old kid. He is a second owner and has her for 8 months rode about 500 miles. Has signs of being dropped and but no real damages. Not garage kept but it has a HD cover. Bike is somewhat dirty.

But I have net seen any 2007 SB less than 10K on them market. What do you think?

He posted for 10K and willing to go to $9.3K

He bought in Sept last year in Boston. So he did not have much time to ride. and recently moved to live with his Dad. No place to keep and no money.

I'd check it out really close. I go by the old rule "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is"....
