Default How much should I pay?

My friend needs to sell his 04 ultra with 95" and only 10.5k on it. All black, injected and pretty damn clean. I have a wide glide and only need the ultra for taking mama in comfort, she's on chemo and needs comfort or she won't go. Just wondering if $10,000 is a good price

sorry to hear about the wife. it doesn't matter what you pay for it. if you spend 9000, 10000 or 11000....if you get to spend quality time with the wife, its worth every penny. jmho.

However, if you are buying from a "friend" because he "needs" the money, you should strongly consider asking him what he needs.

for ref.. I purchased a 03 FLHTCI in 2012 for $10k, stock motor (14K), etc. Did a little work to it, put 12K more miles on it and traded it in at a dealer and got 8K (almost 2 years later) for it. I think 10K for the 04 is a good price.

I think 10K is a fair price for the bike. If he's a really close friend, I wouldn't lowball him. After all, he offered it to you at a good price.
