Enough for me to get my next H-D. A newer Road Glide Custom and enough $$$ to do some mods.

Sometimes one of them gets under your skin for whatever your personal reasons will be and that " one " will stay like Panz's bike and mine . Mine saved my life in a house fire before I had even finished building it , hadn't had the bike to throw through a collapsed door I'd have burned . Since then that bike and I have been places , done things and come through ordeals that I shouldn't have survived together a few times . Just does something on a soul deep level to you and no price is going to touch that . Some of us are just wired that way while others will always see things as replaceable toys .

I say $25k... but truth be told, $18 cash would do it. Anyone who wants it that bad can have it. I always say everything I own is for sale, but the price is probably more than you wanna pay

Yea, I am the same way. Make me an offer that I know is around high retail and I would sell and head to the internet looking for my next bike.

Kinda of been thinking of that the last few months. Even test rode the bike I would like to have yesterday.

The wife would not be happy with the payments so I would have to get a used one so I could pay cash with what I got from my bike.

Kinda mixed bag about this - anyone crazy enough to give me the money I would want is probably too dumb to be on a bike. Selling her is one thing, seeing her wrecked by an idiot is something else.

Gonna need to see pics of that bad boy. My favorite car of all time is a 70 LS-6 Chevelle.


Since I have a hankering for a Road King Classic, the FatBoy has a price.
NOW......... There is a bike that I am trying to by from my childhood. My uncle (dad doesn't ride) had a 56 pan growing up. He took me for my first ride on that bike. I told him he was to blame for getting me hooked. Anyway, he moved to CO and it was his everyday rider until he bought his geezer glide in 01. Sold it to "Anthony", now since my cousins name is Anthony I figured it was his. Nope. His son in law Anthony. Only rode it twice since he bought it and I'm told he is interested in selling. Never met this guy but I will own his bike. Oh yes I will! Uncle is saying heads have been glass beaded too many times. Don't care. I remember that ride like it was yesterday. There's something about those old pans.

My bike is an '04 I bought in '05. It had 1300 miles on it. Over the years I have modified or changed everything on it but the frame and the tranny. It took a lot of research, hard work, sweat, frustration, and money to get it to where it is today. I have enjoyed every minute of it but I've gotten older and I'm not sure I'd want to do it again. So if I were to sell it, somebody is going to have to want it very, very badly. I don't see it happening. As long as I can ride a two wheeler, it most likely will always be the one I have now.

I'd sell 'er for 14K. Then I'd plunk down for a new Deluxe.
