Default Anyone know owner of 85 FLHC for sale

Looking at this 85 flh for sale.
listing states for sale by owner.
definitely not the case.
anyone know the owner?
Or low mile 84/85 flh no electronics in fairing for sale. Stock not modified to be used as daily rider.

here’s a link to flh I found
have friend 5 min away but seller is not owner

agree 100% is red flag especially when friend lives 5 min away & can check bike out for me.

was hopping someone in this forum would recognize the bike and know the seller (if they exist)

Looks like a valid listing to me. Gives a phone, 603 is NH and says to call to see it, nothing sketchy there. Could very well be a friend who's listing it for someone not computer savy. Still a lotta ole timers up there that don't do computer.

Seller would not let my friend view bike on my behalf, stated “didn’t want owner to know what he was selling it for”

definitely worth avoiding IMO
If dealer why falsify Craigslist ad?
shady is as shady does

What sucks is that is a good looking stock bike, might be worth the time to call the guy again and feel out the situation. Going to be hard to find another one that nice, good luck.

agree on hard to find however seller definitely hid the fact it wasn’t his bike.
Have 5 bikes in garage (2 need to sell)
not in hurry- right bike will come at right time

I have dealt with people that seemed sketchy at first, turned out they just didn't have any people skills, carry on.
