I have a friend who has an 2006 1200 Custom and is asking $9,000. The bike has less than 5k on it and has been serviced only by the Harley shop..is the price high or pretty reasonable.
Bought an 05 1200 Custom w/4,500 miles on it, Stage 1, V&H straight shots, drag bars, flawless cond. for $6,500 last Spring. Based on this, your friend's asking too much. A good way to compare prices is to check Craig's list for comparable listings. Lot's of bike classifieds. It's how I found my bike.
Some of the asking prices are ridiculous and often reflect an owners desire to get $$ for stuff he's added to the bike. I was advised not to pay extra for the add-on's beyond Stage 1 and maybe suspension upgrades. The rest isn't worth much in trade or for resale.

So are you saying the accessories that have been added to a bike aren't worth anything? Interesting....
I'll jump on this too. I bought my blue and silver 06 1200C from a stealer last year this month. It came with windshield, windshield bag, and back rest for passenger. The odometer read 5200. I paid 7600 out the door for it.
