Price seems high relative to mileage. I paid 9,000 for my 06 Street Bob two years ago and it was a stage II 95 inch with forward controls. I installed an SE 120R in this bike a year ago and even with 139.92 hp and 133.7 tq no problems with the inner primary that everyone seems so worried about. The stator and rotor were replaced as part of the SE 120R installation due to the engine requiring the 07 and later version.

If you like the bike, negotiate a better price and buy it. If not keep browsing, lot's of bikes for sale lately it seems.

 

There were a couple of Streetbobs on this site recently that were low mileage and were selling for $8,500 to 9k. Of course, you might have to pay for shipping which is another 5 or 600. I bought an '07 off this site that I had shipped. It was $9,500 with about 4,500 miles with a $2,500 custom paint job (the reason I bought it cause I love it) and V&H Big Radius pipes (which I'm selling). I shopped for about 2 months, looked at this site, ebay (for reference), Chopper Exchange, Craigslist, Cycle Trader, etc. After you've done that a good deal will jump out at you. With the weather warming up bikes may be a little more expensive but I've never seen a better time to buy. Wait for someone who really needs to sell and is realistic about what they can get.
Good luck.

 

I'd say it's a bit high. Granted, my bike isn't a Street Bob, it's an FXD. All the same, I got it less than a year ago with 10,500 on the clock, Stage I intake, and a 103", the dealer was *asking* $9,500. I peobably actually got it somewhere in the neighborhood of $9,000. On top of that, I won't have to worry about the problems that plagued the '06s. The only downside is, the dang thing is just too much fun to ride!

I'd say keep looking and either get one at a better price soon before peak riding weather (aka "higher prices") or wait until next fall/winter and the next downturn in prices. There are deals to be had, you just gotta find them, and good luck!

 

07 or 08 would be better... $ always an issue though hey.

 

H-D fixed at no cost to me. First under regular warranty and they also covered the other 2 repairs. No idea what costs would have been but the last fix with the trans cases would not have been cheap.

My bike runs as strong (and looks as good) with 22,484 miles as it did at 1,000 miles, so 23,000 miles is no problem so long as it has been well maintained.

Price varies by location so see what similar bikes are going for on your area.

look for an 07 and newer dyna if you dont want to deal with the ipb and stator issues....

 

Price seems high. I bought my bob last month, it is an 07 with 13k on it and I paid 9k.

 

+1
I've dealt with both of these issues on my 06 and, whether or not it involves money out of your pocket, it's a big PITA. Just avoid it and go with a newer bike. It's worth a little extra $ for peace of mind.

 

Price is high, real high. I picked my 07 up with 7500 miles on it, with a transferable maintenance plan on it (2500 buck option) for $8500. Hit CraigsList up or even eBay. Both will give you the highs and lows of pricing. Kellly Blue Book will also be a good reference point. In today's economy, you should be able to pick one up closer to wholesale than you think. Bargains are out there and this is not one of them..

 

To OP...price seems high to me. A week ago I just bought a 2009 Street Bob with 1700 miles, all rear passenger goodies, luggage bag, Power Commander, Vance pipes, forward controls, bullet headlight, security system and Stage 1 air cleaner...

I paid $8500. He was only asking $9000.
