NADA value is around $6800 for it. All the Sportsters around here for $7000+ aren't moving. He might get insulted but I wouldn't be willing to pay more than $6000 for it.

NADA.com says $5800 for low retail, $6800 for average retail, and $8000 for Suggested List price.

Sounds like a good deal to me. KBB is upwards of $7400. With such little miles on it, I would jump on it in a heartbeat.

You flip bikes 5 times a year and you're asking "what is it worth"? Something's not right here...
