I've never had a Harley before. Just a ton of sportbikes. What yall think of this custom built '02 Softail? Would this be worth $10k to yall? Has over $20k in receipts. Has a clean title & never been down or tipped over.

its nice but i dont care for the rear fender very much. all the guys i know that ride and from other experience softails arent the best handeling/riding bike there is but that bike looks more like a red light bike so doesnt really matter

I've owned several Harley's. The last bike being a modified '02 Dyna Low Rider. I sold mine 2 years ago for $10K with about 15K of aftermarket stuff on top of the cost of the bike. My frame was powdercoated the same color as my flames and had skulls airbrushed into the flames. My paint was done by Horst, the same painter that Simm's uses.
$10K would probably be an ok deal for that bike, but I don't think you'd make money if you were to try and sell it. Bikes have lost a lot of popularity in the last few years.

Nick...if you're going for a Harley I say you get a "bagger" style bike. The one you posted is clean but I dont think you'd enjoy it much...

Honestly coming from a bunch of sportbikes my 1st Harley of choice would be the XR1200. This Softail here is a possible trade deal for me.

Nice bike it's deffinetly worth $10k. I'm more of an Fxr fan and for the bigger bikes road king and street glide are the bikes to get.

If the rear fender didn't extend so far hell ya. I'd cut the fender down a little shorter and that's it.

It's cool,too flashy for my style. I like old old school bikes with just the essentials. I ride a rigid with a springer front end, an evo, 6 speed and a kicker. No starter here. ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)
