i don’t have the room. I have a 02 sportster hardtail I built, 88 fxr and now these 2 bikes. Honestly I’d like to get rid of the fxr (maybe) and definitely the lowrider. I’ve had plenty of dynas…

Wow that's less than half what I paid for the exact same bike 6 months ago, Great deal ! Check those tire date codes. Mine looked great but were way past expiration date. I find the stock bars very comfortable but the stock headlight needs upgraded.

I had Harley print the service records for me. The tires were just replaced last July and date codes match that. The bike had a 20,000 mile service and the brake fluid was replaced as well. The brake pads are almost new and the battery was just replaced too.

the one thing I did notice, the rocker cover screws are rusted so I ordered new ones and the head bolts are rusted too so I bought some nice chrome covers for those. I figure I clean them up some and put some rust reformer on them before I put the covers on. Aside from that and a few small scratches on the rear fender where the seat tab screws in it’s in excellent condition. A little wet sanding and buffing and I bet the scratches will be taken care of or at least be less noticeable.

im ready for spring!
