black and grey with the eagles painted on the side. CD exchanger in the tour pac,
its got those fish hook or whatever you call them exhaust tips which I dont think are stock , but I know the exhaust is often the 1st thing to go when someone buys harleys .

I dont think there are any shenanagins (spelling ) here!

Bakes, tell your neighbor I will give him $17k for it.  The sharkfins are desireable.  My concern would be the dry rot on the rubber and the seals has someone else said.  But those are easily corrected.  Let me know where to come get it.
thanks

Heck if you don't buy it, I know someone that will!  It's a classic, imo...

Warren, My Dad wanted one of those for the longest time.  He searched and couldn't find a used one without a bunch of miles so he ended up with the FXDWG3, and later got a 05 Road Glide, 30,000 miles later, he still has it.  If I had told him that there was one out there with under 1k miles and under $20K, he would give up his first born, thats me!

well guys, I spoke to the guy today and threw a number at him of 15k and he came back with 16!!!!

So, im going for it!

Great choice.  You're gonna love it.  I had one from 01 until my first O/B SEEG in 04.  Same color.  Great riding bike - comfortable and nice handling!

Couple of thoughts.

Yep, ya got your years screwed up. OK.

New Road Glide $20,000+ time it's said and done. You get a 1" bigger motor w/ a 2 year warranty. New taller frame which is superior to the '00/'01. It really is a better bike. You'll want to buy a tour pak and lowers so there's a couple of more thou.

'00 / '01: Class. Great bike w/ a lesser intake system. Assuming it's mechanically sound (sitting around for 7 or 8 years isn't a good thing) you'll have a great ride that will take you across the county and back. I briefly had an '00 and if H.D. hadn't come out w/ the SERG this year I'd still have it and be proud to ride it - anywhere.

If you're going to ride the wheels off it I'd go for a newer bike because of the warranty. If you intend to stay close to home I'd think real hard about the used one.

Hi Screamin,

I'm totally new to this forum.......just found it a week ago and it's very helpful.  I've been reading on the 09 SERG in the past week because I'm getting one in Thailand!  I was wondering one thing you said because I don't know what you mean.  Sorry, it could be silly.  You said something about "lower", can you please tell me what you mean on that?  And.........to do so, what needs to be done?  Thanks in advance..........can't wait for it to arrive here in Thailand!

[grandpadoc]

So, the question is do I go for a brand new Road Glide stock  or for almost the same price the older serg in almost new condition.
PS. I owned a 03 SEEG and wish i never sold it!
any feedback is much appreciated!!  Steve

I had the same choice to make a year ago and bought a low mile 00 and haven't regretted it. Like they said a new SERG by the time you add the tour pack and lowers is priced out of site. That 95 inch motor is almost a quick as a new 110 and without all the issues and a much more complete bike for half the cost. Those shark fins will grow on you after a while and are no longer available, so take good care of them. I think the complete package will be available again next year but with a wet motor to make use of the new chasis and then it would be better to wait another year or two for them to get it sorted out. In the mean time you can enjoy the bike that started it all, the 00 and 01 Screaming Eagles.     Doc

Not a silly question at all.

Lower fairings. See:

Also may need the "glove" boxes that go inside them.

Best of luck w/ the new ride. Hope it arrives soon.

Well, in that case I would have certainly let him have it. Here is where I could really ding you about your value vs the value of the bike....but I won't.    Unfortunetly, Bakes came to his senses and went for it.
Good for him!  And congrats!  BTW, were are the pics of it?
