Looks really nice. You got yourself a golden find there.


How are the tires? I would think after 5 years of sitting in an unconditioned space that they would show signs of dry rot or weather fatigue.



Other than that, looks like your happy with the find. And rightly should be.

Why can't I come across a deal like that. That is a nice looking ride.

The tires appear to be OK, but I will be keeping a close eye on them for sure...

Shoot, I know of a 2002 Road King police bike that is sitting in some guy's garage with 200 kms (125 miles) on the clock. Former boss of mine. He won't sell it because he wants to leave it to his son, but his son has no interest in motorcycles. Sure would like to see the bike go to someone who will enjoy it and love it, but it's his bike...

So what you are saying is you'd wish the boss would break down and sell it to you cheap

Nope! Even if he gave it to me, I couldn't afford the cost of ownership on two bikes.
