With the insanely high mark up the Hardley Rideable dealers have, he could have given you that FJR and still made a tidy profit, if the previous owner traded it on a New Hardley.
My ******* brother-inlaw bought an 06 1200 "sportster" LOL, paid nearly $15k for a bike with an MSRP of $9800.
Having had it a year now he hates it and can't get out from under it, I told him to ride to the local Hardley haunt and tell the collective that he rode it all the way to Daytona from Pensacola without it breaking down.
They should be all over it like white on rice
It didn't make it all the way back though, started puking gobs of oil through the air filter and we had to trailer it back from Tallahassee.

Nice deal on the 06 though, glad you got it away from all those farm implements and out on the open road where it belongs.
