Default Nightster Advice

Need some Sporty advice (I'm an Ultra Classic guy). My son-in-law just passed his motorcycle safety class and is now a newly licensed rider. He's looking at this ride and I'd like to ask for any words of wisdom from my fellow HDForum member friends. Pros/Cons with this model in 2007, etc... THANKS!

'07 Black and Silver Harley Davidson Nightster 1200 w/ 1800 miles ($7300.00)
I have a baby on the way and the wife says it is time to get rid of the toys. Even though this is a fabulous machine, it's a tough choice for me to sell, I have to put family first

If you are looking for a new bike with head turning capabilities and old school characteristics this is it.

Extras that are installed:
Forward Controls
Passenger Pegs
Screaming Eagle Air Filter
Vance and Hines Short Shots
Power Boost Computer Chip
Lowered Front Turn signals
Brand New Battery

Extras that are included but not on the bike:
Windscreen
Passenger Seat
Passenger Backrest with Luggage Rack
Stock Air Filter
Stock Exhaust Pipes
Chrome Ape Hangers
Extra Set of Hand Grips
Racing Clutch
Long Clutch and Brake Cables for the ape hangers

I purchased this bike for a fun project and for a weekend ridder (The tires still have whiskers on them)
This bike has been broken in correctly and has undergone two oil changes, the first was at 750 miles and the second was performed at 1500 miles
All services have been done at Hacienda Harley
This bike is very fast and loud
I have put a lot of work into this beautiful machine and it truly shows with all the extras and the current condition of the bike.
Out of my collection of motorcycles this will be the last to go, I really enjoy ridding this motorcycle and hate the have to part with it.
I have owned the entire spectrum of motorcycles (Sport Bikes - Cruisers) I have found that I prefer Harley over the rest

For an additional $100 I will throw in a Black Leather Vest with armor and a glossy black Half Helmet (M)

The bike has never been down and has always been garaged. MINT condition and it shows
I have priced this bike to competitively compete with all of the other nightster 1200's on Craigslist
My price is fairly firm considering the mileage and all the extras

Cash only, Pick up only, no shipping, no trades, no scams, serious inquiries only please

If you got the Dinero, Jump on it. Only 1800 miles, it's a steal
