I'm back again...
2018_FLTRXSE:
Sorry for the long hiatus....
In the middle of last year I was involved in a wreck with another bike. Minor damage, but damage just the same.
Then in November I throw my back out again trying to be a young man and still carry heavy stuff...
Just got the MRI on Sunday... Still dealing with pain issues and really HATE pain meds after what I went through the last time.
When I first re-injured myself the pain was so intense that I thought the original fusion at L4-L5 had failed.
Waiting for Doc to tell me what the next step is.
In the meantime, my sidecar has been sitting at my buddies shop, in no rush since I cant ride.
Then I saw last years ad, and some subsequent marketing info for the 2023 Electra Glide Highway King. (And Optional Sidecar from Champion)
Two colors.. HI FI Orange/black and HI FI Magenta (dark pink) / black
My friend just went on a trip to Alaska, and sent me pics of the Magenta one there. $65k!
I find a low mile version at California HD.... $83K... damn they must have some good weed in Cali!
So I did the rounds, internet search, and lo and behold I find one on EBay... just under 1300 miles.
Now, to get it from FL to HI

Can't imagine what shipping from Florida to Hawaii will be. :nervous: Best of luck with that and here's wishing you a speedy recovery with your back. :2vrolijk_21:

I was figuring about $2.5k... 900 across the water and 1400 across the states.
What I wasnt counting on, was the fact that motorcycles need to be crated or palleted to ship to Hawaii! That almost doubles the shipping cost!

Wow, nice find on the bike with side car. However that shipping sure is expensive.
