It now is about to turn over to 40,000 miles in the next couple days on me. This past november I had a 95" big bore kit, cams, feuling oil pump and lifters done. The motor and tranny were still solid and I did the big bore mostly cause I ran out of other **** to do on it after customizing the hell out of it the past couple years. Now it runs like a beast and I anticipate running it for several more years, even if I end up buying a 110th Anniversary model like I want. As for this "wiring harness" issue everyone keeps talking about I have no idea what they speak of. I've added a stereo, amp and speakers and never worried about the factory harness. No dead shorts anywhere and no wiring problems that I have seen so far in two years. Not sure what other depts are doing with their bikes but around these parts the dealer removes all the lights and equipment when they are traded in for newer ones. The wires on my dept's motors were properly terminated and covered to avoid shorts, three of them were bought by officers I work with and are running fine still. If some dept is just letting someone clip all the wires and rip the equipment off before they are given back to the dept then that is a depts. bikes to avoid for sure!

If you are anywhere near Indiana I would tell you to look into the Indiana State Police bikes. They sell them all every year and I've never found one with more than 5k miles of the couple dozen I looked at in Plainfield at Indy West HD last year. Plus the ISP bikes don't have the birch white pain like mine, they have a gold metal flake or pearl quality to the white paint. Very eye catching IMHO. Indy West HD sells them for around $14-15k and several of them are already converted for two-up riding by the dealer to make them more attractive to buyers. Plus like stated above, the last several model years come stock with a 103" and the 6-speed. I still kick myself for not waiting on a slightly newer one. But hell, I only owe $5,000 on mine so I'm pretty happy. Let us all know what you are looking at. As you can see above, you have a bunch of us quasi-experts in this field and we love talking about our cop bikes!
