Looking for sage advice on the asking price and perhaps what to offer on a 2010 Ultra Classic Electra Glide. Bike Dealer asking $17,599, bike seems to be in great, if not excellent, shape. 10,820 miles. No obvious mods, at least to me. Pic attached (or so I hope, as I'm brand spanking new to the site).

Thanks in advance for any input.

 

From the NADA Book

Average retail 19675.00

Low retail 15725.00



Good Luck

Tim

 

welcome to the forums.

the 2010 Ultra is a great bike, pricing seems good.

without knowing your past experience, needs, wants, desires it is difficult to expand on that

It strikes me as a reasonable price from a dealer. I'd offer 1K less. They can give a little and you can give a little. Maybe come to terms at 17K or so.

 

Looks like a rental fleet turn in, check previuos history/owner. If no trade involved, I would offer $16000 + TTF, they may take it.

 

Well so far so good on all of your input, thanks. I did look at the KBB on it and NADA, but I wanted to hear from some folks other than a book.

Good point on the rental fleet, possible, but this is an indie dealer so I'll have to check on that.

As for my experience, I'd be jumping up from a Sporty. So I plan on outfitting it with a quick release for the tour pack to slim it down when I don't need it. I also have trained with my local LEO dept. on Road Kings, so the size jump isn't a concern for me. I've been riding on and off 20 plus years. Just want a bigger ride so my wife will be more comfortable.

Thanks again, for the input so far.

 

Bike looks great, if you like it dont haggle on that price too long, someone else may ****** it away, GO FOR IT!!!!!

 

What does a rental bike look like? Someone has added a few chrome bits to this one - front signal trim rings, premium luggage rack, & chrome trim around the tourpak tail lights.

 

It does seem like a fair price given the mileage and age. Bile looks to be in great shape. White Ice picked up on the only visible accessories - about $400.00 or so retail. I'd be inclined to throw out an offer $1k less or so, but if the bike looks as good on the floor as is does in the picture, I'd go for it - that's about $4k less than what you would pay new.

 

Good catch White Ice. See that's why I asked in the first place. I didn't even think about the trim add ons.

I scanned the local HD dealer's site and looked at what they had on hand that's comparable, two were double the mileage and they're asking over 19k and they had a straight up Classic asking over 18k and 5k more miles. All with nothing extra than perhaps upgraded paint. So with that in mind and everyone's input, this is looking like a good possibility.

I'm going to go in tomorrow (they're closed today) and give it a good once over and a test ride...
