So? Won't find one with those low miles. And he do t have to worry about heat issue, limp mode, or starting threads about removing cats.
2006 was a great year for baggers.

Don't worry about this frame crap. Harley changed the frame to save costs on the trike. They can use the same frame between the 2 models now since the rear section is bolted together.
Not saying that a newer model is better, just that this one is overpriced.

This is a dead issue. I made an offer on the bike tonight based on all the fantastic advise from my brothers on the touring section. The seller is very proud of his time capsule and would not budge on price.

In all fairness, 'he' can't replace this bike for what he's asking for it. But 'you' can probably find a better deal. I'm a little biased, but I would continue to seek an older bike if I were you. I can't imagine having to deal with the various issues that the newer bikes have. But that's just me....

I've got an '06 Ultra and love it. That's a $23k bike as you are well aware. It will have none of the over heat or trans problems that the newer ones have. You will have Harmon Kardon problems that they still have, as they still use the same POS radio. You could add an automatic primary tensioner on it. Then put the anti sway kit on if it bothers you. Mine has been bullet proof although I only have 19k miles on mine. It'll hang with any big bike in the twisties unless you are Yellow Wolf. Just on the fact you shouldn't have to do the work on it like the 07, 08,09 guys had to, think about it.
