what is this, dyna lowrider shovel???
hey guys,
i've recently posted a craiglist add looking for a project bike to trade a quad and/or jeep cj7 for. i've had a few offers and a guy wanted to trade me this dyna, i assume since it has a shovelhead in it. its a super nice and not exactly what i wanted to start bobbing out, but thought i would get some insite as to what model it may be, or it may just be a throw together custom. i am still trying to get further details on this bike from the owner. looks like a lowrider dash and a wide glide front...
also, has anyone ever sold/bought a bike/anything off craigslist? any tips, ect.
heres the bike:

FXR is the rubber mounted shovel engine Super Glide. Front end does look like the wide glide style and the dual brake set up. Looks like you would have the front, forward controls and just change around the rear. nothing too nice to change up. It would be just a few less things you would have to buy.HAHA!
If it runs out good, go for it and then make it your's!

i thought about it... but this bike had a complete restore (everything was replaced or rebuilt) on it and was appraised at 12k (thats what the seller said at least). it would free up some driveway space and would be an excellent starting point. but i would be looking at trade both my quad and jeep on this one, i was hoping to just trade my quad... but i'm really starting to think hard about this one.
by the way... your bike is kick ***!

Guess I am having a hard time seeing 12 in that bike. Suppose it is worth what someone will pay for it though.
Go to www.craiglook.com. Type in harley davidson shovelhead. Gives a wider range of shovels available rather than in just your area. One other source you can check is the jockey journal. Guys on that forum are all into bobs and chops both American and Brit.

It was built by a professional shop in his area, i am going to call and talk to them about the bike, if they remeber. But i am really considering picking up this bike. Everything had been rebuilt or replaced, tire to tire. I think its a sharp looking bike.
Really its worth more than my trades, i think, so i cant really go wrong. And its got the motor i was wanting and a 5 speed trans, no kicker though (but that can be changed). But i think i could sell any parts i dont plan on putting back on the bike and have cash in my pocket! I just got to get the jeeps transmission straight and then the deal is on!
