Default 1996 Heritage Nostalgia

Can you guys give me a thought on what a 1996 Heritage Nostalgia with 10,000 miles that was owned by a collector would be worth. This bike is in mint condition. Thanks for the input.

I'd ask your local dealer what he would be willing to pay for it to buy it outright. Are you buying it to ride or to hold on to for 50 years? If it's the latter, you'd be better off putting the same amount of money into a money market account and sending your grandkids through college, including graduate school. With 10K miles on it already, it's not something someone will ever be willing to pay a lot of money for. But then again...if its the only one of its kind, who knows. Any bike is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it.

Didn't you post this question a couple of months back?

Bottom line you're buying an eleven year old bike with low miles and paying the premium price fortwo-tone paint.

If a collector owns it, he's not going to sell it cheap. If youlove this bike,the priceyou pay is a result of your passion.

If you're looking for a deal, keep looking. There's a lot of bikes for sale out there.

Yes I did post this on the same bike. The guy still has it and it keeps calling me. Guess I'm trying to justify spending the money for it.

The Nostalgia is an awesome bike , always liked them. And if your willing to spend some money on it then go for it . But I like the Heritage Classic same design and I`m sure you can get a newer one for the price your going to pay for the11year oldNostalgia. But that`s just me ...Good luck on whatever you decide !
