Default 1998 Heritage Softail

So, would you guys even consider a 1998 Heritage with 66,000 miles. Meticulously maintained. S&S carb. 2-1 Vance & Hines performance pipes.
Asking $9000, I think he'd probably take $7000.

I just bought a 96 27K miles, in need for $3100 put $700 in it + time.

All about what it's worth to you. To me it would be $5k - $6k max. Don't know your market. There are 2 listed here 1 for 6K and one for 7K meaning 4.5 or 5 and 5.5 or 6 but I'm not excited, I'm talking market.

Might be a good bike, just a bit expensive. Ebay has many at about the same age / condition in the $5000/$6000 range.

Jtiesinga,


Sounds a little high. For that kind of money you could buy a much newer bike with less miles.

Nice find. Bike looks great.

I had a 99 Fxstc w/35 K on it mileage wise that I had close to 20K in.
It was cammed and had a lot of custom stuff added to it.

I thought that when I decided to move on to a geezer glide in 09 that the softail was worth probably low $10's. It only sold for $8.8.

Well, like I said, he'd probably take 7,000. It's in great condition. The only concern I had were the miles. I just love the way those Evo's sound and ride.
