Default Did i do ok? (purchase)

Well i bought a 2006 Electra Glide Touring? 3500 miles paid $12,700 and i thought that was a good price for the miles. Bike is all stock.So do you guys think that it was a good deal? You can be honest...
Thanks
Steve in Ct

You can go to chopperexchange.com and fill out the info and pricing for the same bike specs and see what the market has to offer...not a bad indicator IMHO. Judging from the search results, you did good for such a low mileage bike.

Welcome to the Forums.

Look Forward not back- enjoy the new ride, that's what counts.



...don't let these guys talk you into buying a bunch of chrome gee-gaws ! They know all kinds of ways to spend money.

A "good deal" is when both seller & buyer walk away happy. Nice bike. You did fine. Get out & ride it!

Great Deal!, and good choice in color! I bought mine a year and a half ago with 34000 miles for $12K

Welcome, and enjoy your new ride.
