Default 2006 Roadsters Availability
Been looking for a 2006 Roadster as a donor bike to do a XR conversion but find it intereting that there are not that many on the used market. If eBay id any indicator there are none....but plenty of Customs......does anyone know how many Roadsters were made vs Customs in 2006?

I dont know the production numbers, but I know many more customs are produced then roadsters. The Customs tend to be much more popular for dealers to sell. There are roadsters out there, keep looking. They tend to be a little cheaper also then the customs.

Apparently, not many, a stealer actually got excited about me considering trading mine.

I've got a bone stock '06, 460 miles. Wish I had the chance to ride it more. Been thinking of selling, but was unsure of demand.

We have two new 2006 883R's right now on the floor (one orange, one black).... The owner bought them from a dealer in Ohio.

lol... Yeah... As the story goes (from the owner)... The owner of the dealership in Ohio forgot he had them... He had them stuffed in the back of a storage facility... We also bought two '06 Street Rods and an '06 Dyna Wide Glide.
