    Hi all.

    I am a 55 year old new rider or should I say reborn rider.  I rode bikes about 20 years back and loved it.  As I got older I was looking for that get out there feeling agin so I purchased a new bike and started to ride again.  Well, that part is over and now I'm on the look out for a real bike and quite like the look and sound of the heritage soft tail.  I like the cruiser style and the cumfort it offers.

    Is there anyone out ther that can give me any tips on this model.

    Any tips on a good value for this model.  I'm looking for a 1998 heritage soft tail classis with low kilos.  is $18,000 a fair price or am i being a scroog?  

    all comments welcome.

    Welcome Tulls hope you enjoy the forum i would say $18,000 is at the lower end of the market.I think for a top looking heritage classic you would be paying around $20,000 to $22,000, thats not to say there not out there for $18,000. All i did was keep checking out the bike mags like just bikes for a few months and i found what i was after.Well good luck i hope you get what you want and take care out thereP.S this is only my opinion Tulls.
