Good idea! I could go into the Bling business! I told him I was going to pass and he said that he really needs to get rid of it... to make him an offer. I am meeting with him again this weekend.

RE: Need help from all you Touring Riders
one thing to remember is when you put shiny stuff on a bike it won't increase its value any. only gives you the warm fuzzies for a short while until you releise how much work it is to keep clean and shiny. you could buy every item in the catolog, put it on the bike then bring it to any dealer and they will break out the nada book and quote you what they will give you.with no allowence made for chrome goodies. now when you want to BUY that same bike with the stuff you would put on, they'll break out the kelly blue book and are quick to tell you how much all the chrome stuff is worth.a little is ok just dont go overboard you'll never see the return.,,

If the price is right, buy it! Like others said, just unbolt the bling and sell it. I have my share of bling on my scoot, and I dont worry about the resale value. I know I will never get back what I put into it, but its what makes my bike "MY BIKE".

Just do it!! I have an 03 Road King I bought with 16k on the ododmeter, I am getting ready to turn 32K any ride now . The only problem I experienced was the transmission bracket that the exhaust mounts to, not a major problem just made an annoying rattle so I replaced it. I love my bike and don't plan on parting with it any time soon.
