I am not into baggers, but I do like yours! I was trying to figure on the other two where $60K went into them?

I couldn't ride the one with all the Skull's, too scary for me. I'd be skeered all the time lookin at all them Skulls.

If I had more $$$ than I knew what to do with I'd buy buy the blue one and donate it to a GW club so they could use for a bike bash to raise food money with.

2012 Harley-Davidson Street Glide FLHX White with custom skull and Grim Reaper graphics! This Street Glide is kitted out to the max. There is over 60k into this bike. Take advantage and have a one of a kind Street Glide!






I can pay off the balance on my Mortgage for less than the cost of that bike.....

I didn't know there was such a thing as too much money. And I also didn't know that if you worked hard, invested wisely and have some cash that it made you a dick!!! I guess if your the jealous type and all you had to ride to your local bike night was a superglide, maybe.

Jamminjimmy, your bike is awsome!!!

As an professional appraiser I know that asking prices do not equal value. People can as whatever they want. It's the sale price of similar bikes that I would be interested in.

I'm not mad at all Old Top! And thanks Steve and Sub. After you've torn your bike down to nothing more than a few times you tend to notice the details of the build. I think for the right person the two bikes shown are a good deal. I would have NEVER of thought that I would do the things that I've done to mine or spend the money that I've spent. How much is a new Streetglide anyway, or a CVO? I bought all the parts at the best prices I could find and did all my own labor except for some powder coating and some paint, and I still think I've got $25,000 extra into it. BUT if you can't work on your own **** then you're going to get it broke off in you! The prices I hear dealers charging for basic repairs or maintenance is crazy! For those who aren't mechanically inclined a bike like the OP posted is ideal.. just my .02

So someone tell the difference spending 40k on one of the OP bikes vs a new CVO? It's all about your individual prerogative. I personally would much rather have a one off custom than a factory built CVO. I'm sure most of you haters here have a boners over CVO bikes.

Personally I like Jamms bike better than the other two. Like I said I like the style just not the color of the first bikes. Jamms has the style and the color. I have no clue if its worth 39k. I do know **** adds up. But if I were to spend that kind of money, he would get my dough before High desert Harley would
