The local HD dealer has two for sale. 9,500 miles on one. 10,500 on the other. 2017 models. Asking $17,999.00 . For each one. I thought that was a little steep. But. They have to start some where. I prefer the bare bones cop bikes. I would just have to add tour pack for trips. Which I have. Thoughts and opinions. Thanks. Ya'll know me.
Thats really steep for a bike that was run hard, and put away wet. Its weird that they are such low mileage.
That is kinda what I thought. Dealer purchased them from the Killen ,TX PD. Which is a relativity small Central Texas town. Think Fort Hood Texas. Maybe used primarily for parades, funerals etc.

Lots of cop bikes are on year leases and not unusual to see them for sale with that kind of mileage. Many cop bikes aren't run that hard and most are very well maintained. I would not hesitate to buy a clean low mileage cop bike. But those prices are high even in this current high price era.
A neighbor of mine is a retired CHP Motor. This probably doesn't apply to a PD bike but he said there's no way in hell he would ever buy retired CHP scooter regardless of the brand.

Runaway from both the year and history and buy a brand new electra glide standard.
I would agree, the first year 2017 M8s had a history of issues. With that said I had a 2017 M8 Road Glide Ultra that I put 30K miles on with not one issue, so the issues while they were out there did not effect the majority of the 2017s. The milage is low on the bikes you are looking at but as others have said the price seems high even with the fact that used bikes today are bringing more money. And as the poster above pointed out you can get a new ElectraGlide Standard for close to that same asking price
