Default 1998 Road King

I have an oportunity to buy a 1998 Road King for a good price. What are some of the things I should look for. The owner says it is worth about 8000 dollars. It has 20000 miles on the clock. Thanks

As long as it has been maintained there is nothing to worry about. That is the last year of the Evo in the Road King and the last years Evos were very good motors.
