Default Considering buying a '13 TG, need your thoughts

Ladies, Gents,
'13 TG, 5k miles, black, stock with $3k in accessories for $19,000 (payoff). Transferable extended warranty. According to the seller this bike was well cared for, southern area (Texas), always covered, runs perfect, not one scratch.
I am 58, 5'11", 200 lbs, decent shape. The problem I have is my wife and I like to take trips now and again and our '10 Ultra is a beast for me to handle when it's loaded. It is almost getting to the point of being too heavy.
I like the Tri-Glide and have found this one and with a little research it appears to be a good deal. Any opinions out there?

Thanks and best regards, Mark

Snap it up at that price. Just make sure if the extended warranty is important to you, that you get ahold of the company to verify it is transferable. Not all plans are.

As others said, jump on it. If I lived close I'd buy it just to flip it for a handy profit.

I traded my 13 TG for a FW last Nov. Had $ 3000 in "stuff" on it. They sold it for $28000. Had almost 50000 miles on it.

run don't walk. I have a 13 and love it. At that price you can't go wrong unless there is something you are not being told. Even then the extended warrantee should give you some peace of mind
