Default Update...

So I have posted a while back asking for some advice on how much my husband should sell his bike for.

Well he sold his 2007 Night Train this weekend for $16,500!! The guy who bought it is ecstatic and is looking forward to riding.

My mother in law also sold her 2007 Sportster 1200L for $9,700. The guy came and picked it up today.


Thanks to everyone for the advice!

Yeah, but it was owned by a little old lady who only drove it to church on Sundays.

Uhh she said a 2007 Sportster not a 97. Still, getting someone to pay $9700 for a 2007 Sportster is pretty damn good.

This confirms there are idiots everywhere. When you advertised did you explain that Harleys appreciate and that they'd be avoiding having to wait on it for months by buying from you instead of the dealer.
