Here's a 2005 with 40,000 miles for $14,000. That's not cheap to me. It seems like most hold their value as well as any Harley.

Like I said, if you can link me to a cheap one, that would be great.
Traded my 2008 for a 2014 Ultra today

JakeJust craigslist dude , did you get it bought? Hate to see you miss a deal like that :-)

Like I said, I don't think $14,000 for a 9 year old bike is cheap. I'm hoping to buy a bike sometime next year. I really hope you can link me to one of these so called cheap Goldwings before then. I have a feeling you can't.
By the way, here's a 2005 Ultra for $10,500. That's almost cheap.

I know it's an old bike but there is an old 78 Goldwing standard on the Akron Craigslist that is almost cherry...$1,800 OBO. I had a 78 Goldwing with a Vetter fairing, shield and trunk. Probably not what you're looking for but a really cool old bike. I might look around my area to find a similar old Goldwing just......because... LOL!

I bought a new superglide in 13 , and have owned a classic and roadking . Your dealer won'thave your O8 long , people love them and buy them ! Ride on my friend !

FYI I got the Ultra and it does Not have the cooled exhaust ports. A friend of mine did not ride today because his limited had a coolant leak already.
I rode 250 miles today and the bike is very smooth and stable. Of course being new it should be. Got about 43-44 MPG but most of the day was not really fast. Wish it had a CB radio like my old Ultra but it does not. May have to add that on in near future. On some backroads in TN. Really a pretty state.
It was nice not having it stop unexpectedly. No grinding of starter. This new tranny did whine a little in 3 and 4 gears. It has 6 speed tranny.
I got 12.5 k dollar trade in for the bike. So all in all it was a good deal, I think. They are moving out 14s and getting ready to start getting 15s.
I used to trade more often but had 62k trouble free miles. The last 1k miles got me ready to trade it. I really do not like to get stranded.
And on a fix it note. The Harley shop can trouble shoot and repair/replace what they need to. The bike was also just about to need 2 new tires. Their labor rates are crazy these days. So I decided to trade instead of repair.
At least I did not list it for sale and dump it on some individual. Whoever buys it from shop will get a certified with a warranty from them. I will sleep better at night.
That whine will go away after you change that syn3 motor oil out of that tranny!!
Congrats & Good Luck with the new Harley!! Ride On!!!
