I have an opportunity to pick up a 1990 Heritage for 4500. 37000 miles from a friend. He has taken good care of the bike, however it will need new seat and bags and tank panel... as the leather is worn. I was wondering if anyone had any input on this particular year as to possible problems which could arise as I plan on making this my road bike and keeping my Dyna for shorter hops.

thanks

 

Possible oil leaks on the pre 94 EVOs. If it look clean at 37,000 miles you should be good to go though. $4500 sounds like a great price.

 

probably gaskets.... evos tend to leak from primary gaskets, since it's from a friend u should ask what he's done to the bike in the area of maintenance

 

Lots of EVOS lovers in here...

great bottom end,, and lots of upgrade poss's?????

 

i had a 90 evo softail.

started life as a heritage but i turned it into a fatboy.

loved that bike.

like they already said, check for leaks. maybe replace the gaskets just for peace of mind. sounds like your bud took care of it though, so you should be good to go.

btw i got 7500 for mine when i sold it, so pick it up for 4500 and don't look back.

 

thanks I think I will pick it up for a winter project.
