where can i get a harley davison at a cheap price?

Answer 1

It all depends on your definition of cheap. If you are patient and have thetime to watch local newspaper classifieds you could get lucky. Might come down to just driving down the street and seeing a "for sale" sign on one in a driveway. I know 2 guys that had very good luck on Ebay but that's the exception and not the rule. Motorcycle prices on Ebay have convinced me that there really is a serious drug problem in the U.S. For many, owning a Harley was a trendy fashionable thing to do for a while and after a year or two, many have parked these fine machines behind the lawn mower and under the weedwhackers. They have been relagated to Garage Buddha duty and as such you might find one that the current owner has simply lost interest in or can't make the payments any more.

But be aware, I have 2 serious problems and 1 minor problem with my 2 HD's. Both were purchased used, and between the 2 of them I have racked up some 40,000 miles. Neither one has left me stranded or broken down on the side of the road. Obviously there is some factory defect in these to machines that allow them to just keep running. I had a leak in one of them once, but that was a self-inflicted primary cover gasket mistake. Imagine the horror I felt that morning I went out in the garage and found this spot about the size of a dime under the primary! What junk!

I will admit to a comfort issue the first troll / poster mentioned. The stock seat on my 96 'Dyna wasn't the most comfortable saddle I ever sat my a$$ on for any length of time. I put a Mustang seat on it and I would now not hesitate to ride that crappy old EVO from here to where ever I wanted to go even if it took all day. I've done 600 mile days on my other bike (FLHTCI) with stock seat and arrived at my destination tired, thirsty and hungry but not in any pain at all. Obviously another Harley flaw in the comfort department just like the first guy claims, right?

Pay no attention to the Harley bashing trolls. They know not of what they speak.

Answer 2

The least you're going to spend on an EVO era Spotster is 4500-5000. You can probably find a late 80's or early90's Softail for under 10000.
I suggest local classifieds and Cycle Trader or Cycle Buys,that way you are shopping locally . I would never buy a bike on the net,I want to see it and ride it before any $$ changes hands.
Be patient, in a few weeks tax returns will start coming in and a lot of guys will upgrade to newer models ,putting the old scoots up for sale.

Answer 3

You can get most any HD used pretty cheap now. The value of these things are pretty low. It's not like it used to be when you could consider a HD a good deal because they hold their value better. The Company is starting to flood it's OWN market now and bike are actually sitting on the floor a long time now, so the values are coming down. The dealers might even have to sell for under MSRP if this keeps up. I'd wait a year or so, I think the bottom is really ready to fall out now. Unless this strike lasts a long time. If HD doesn't get really smart really soon, it's doomed, DOOMED like Chrysler.......

Answer 4

There's a magazine called "Motorcycle Trader". Try there. If you can't find anything in your price range, try the local Harley dealer; you may be able to get a good deal on one of their trade-ins.
