Had a weak moment and bought a Harley

[ctraylor]

I had a weak moment and bought a 1986 Harley Sportster 883. This bike belonged to a fellow teacher that couldn't ride anymore. The bike sat for 3 years and I have repaired and got it road ready. This would be a great first bike and I will sale for 1400.00 under book value. I will take 4000.00 or best offer. I have rode the bike around 100 miles and runs great with no smoke. The bike has low mileage and when the speedo was removed to install drag bars the milage was at a little over 6000 miles.

 

870-405-3693

 

The bike is at Arkansas State University/ Searcy, AR Automotive Technology Department if you want to see it.

If it doesn't leak oil, I'm sorry, I won't be interested. THERE I SAID IT!!

This bike is in exceptionally good shape and there is no oil leaks at all that I see.

 

If you can give me your cell phone number I will text you a picture. I don't have a camera here at work.

I'm sorry, the people at NADA are high on this one. A brand new 2010 is only $6999. I'm about to buy a used 09 with only 700 miles for $5000.

and this is a '95 (as far as theyd go back) $2,000 and youd be buying a MC w/ 46 HP think about what you've got on the ground

BTW this bike is 24 years old Antique maybe?
