Yea 7k for that bike is a good offer. I would have offered 6 and MAYBE pay 6.5.
To the guy that bought the 16 low for 4.5... you stole it lol.
I bought a 19 Forty Eight Special with stage 1 and 1200 mi in late 2021 for 8K. Now in CA ... that's a pretty good deal. I hammered him for awhile at 7.5... but he wouldn't budge. In the end 8k was definitely worth it to me.
Be patient and good luck. A great deal will come your way.
It gets better. They totaled it in November and with my accessory insurance I walked away with $9,500. and I keep the bike. I'm riding a free bike.
Well Gents, I offered him $7,000 and he countered at $7500 and said he had $9300 in the bike. That sounds about right for a 2016 new and a Stage 1. So, I need to decide. I could wait him out a few weeks and see if he changes his mind….I do have 2 other bikes to ride. The thing I appreciate about this one is that its unmolested and is essentially a blank canvas for me.
jmho,but the bike wont be there for long if its advertised at all. 3300 miles is the big thing,7500 was very fair,you wait 2 weeks it will be gone I wager
Update: The guy reached out last night and after a few texts told me if I was still interested, I could have the bike at $7K. So, heading to the bank today to get the cash. I will pick it up tonight or tomorrow. Can’t wait….
Here is a pic…pretty much looks like every other Iron out there.
I guess he finally figured out he didn't have the golden goose. Well done.
thanks Garry…yeah, I guess he wanted to see if I would change my mind…and I almost did. You guys convinced me to be patient and it worked out this time. I think its a fair deal for me and him. I might of found one a little cheaper but I prefer mostly stock and unmolested. First thing is I am going to change out the exhaust and put the stock seat on it. I will be selling the Mustang seat and Vance Hines slip ons once I get them replaced. I will also replace the Ness Big Sucker air cleaner and sell it.

It might have worked the other way around but I would have just blew it off. Sportsters aren't very hard to find with low miles, especially 883's because they just plain old suck on the highway. You have to gear them and it doesn't cost that much.
