    Is this Superglide really worth $60,000?

    I have seen this on trademe for ages now...

    http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/moto...-603356742.htm

    Is it actually worth that kinda money in that condition? Or dreaming.....

    The seller really isn't going to get far with such a poorly worded and structured listing. Completely dreaming I say.

    When you take a dispassionate look at it, can any Harley be worth 20, 30 or 40k? I'd say no, but there are people who will buy in to the dream(c)(TM).

    And when you read the ad, would you buy anything from that bloke? I suspect it could be a KB member actually.

    Is this Superglide really worth $60,000?

    Either doesn't really want to sell it, just keep the hand bag in touch or doesn't want to pay fees. Lots of sellers do this.

    So you contact them for a more realistic price.

    I know of at least one seller *who through good timing has been able to sell 2 bikes and list a third by using the free relist feature and editing the add.

    I looked at his CB900 but by the time I had the money it was an FJR6? I think the last time I looked it ha evolved into a Harley.

    Asking price on all was $99,999.
    In the ad was comment about keen to talk.

    * allegedly, to the best recall and all the don't shoot me nonsense.

    Stupid phone / Tapatalk, apologies in advance.

    DeMyer's Laws - an argument that consists primarily of rambling quotes isn't worth bothering with.

    He is definitely dreaming. besides that is from the AMF era when Harley's really were unreliable.

    He sounds like a Yank wheeler n' dealer trying to make a quick flip.
    I've spent my money on bikes, booze and babes. The rest I've wasted....
