75000 miles, do compression test and or leak down and that'll tell you how the motor is as well if any leaks. Wheel bearings need to be checked, brakes , clutch plates cables, carb may need a cleaning, circuit breakers may need to be changed as they get tired and this all depends how its been maintained. Otherwise enjoy the ride.
My wife and I rented a cargo van and took a trip to Petawawa and brought home a mint 89 Heritage that was traded in from original owner and was always serviced well, 18000 miles, wife loves the bike.

Just out of curiosity, Did you buy this bike from AM Sales in Downsview? Thats where I bought my police road king. He had a few EVO Police bikes, Toronto Metro Police I think.

Thanks for the replies ...
Apparently po had bike for 8 years after auction and had no maint. records .?
Slight smoke is blue at cold start so assume oil not fuel , po says they all do that .?
Considering the miles , will do a proper comp. test , wheel brgs. ect.
Bit of a bitch not having a decent garage to work in though.
