Hi there, and Welcome to this site!

When I started looking for my FXSTSSE2, there were a couple of things that I learned along the way:

*Make sure that all the recalls have been done.
*Check for rust spots in the paint (common problem)
*Check Service history, and make sure the warranty is still OK.
* If it´s tuned, it should be tuned with SERT or SEST, to be sure warranty is upheld.
I don´t know if there is a solo seat available for stock fender.
Other than that I can only say that it is a great looking bike with endless of options if You plan to do some mods later on.

Good Luck
/John

Nope.....owning a motorcycle is like owning a boat.....a very well known and obvious money pit!
