    I was looking round for a low KM 07 Wide Glide to replace the beast. I came across this one in QLD 

    http://ucn.dealernet.com.au/detail.php?sessionid=EA5BD0CD1D204CA39153C48D89DDE7F2&ucnid=4091804

    Just wondering if anyone had dealt with this mob before or knows anything about them. Any feed back on these guys would be appreciated.

    Also if anyone in the Sydney area knows of any 07 Wide Glides with low KMS let me know

    Hope to be back on the road in the next couple of months

    Cheers KB

    hi KB, these guys at the moment are just about the kings of import harleys in QLD

    you can just about be guaranteed that this bike is an import, allbeit that it would no doubt be a very good bike,

    there are big numbers of import harleys coming in to Qld at the moment, a relative of mine was at the bondstores yesterday and there was approx 30 harleys sitting waiting to be collected, about the same number as a month ago when he was there

    Thanks mate.

    I don't know much about imports i assume there would not be a lot if any difference would there?. I think for the money and the KMS on the bike it is not a bad buy as long is there is no shady stuff going on with imports.

    think these guys are legit, they've been operating for awhile now, seem to get/have alot of bikes,
    didn't Evilsim get his SE fatty off them ?
    only diff on these bikes is the things that need to be changed for compliance, ie; tyres, speedo, brake lines and pads, lights and whatever else they do

    Some imports require an engineers ticket, just make sure its inc in the price. Good luck with it KB, good to hear u will be back on it soon.

    If it sold driveaway, sounds good to me.

    This is the reply i got to an email i sent these guys. Sounds ok to me. Now all i need to do is wait till my payout comes through and have someone up that way go take a look at it for me. Any volunteers lol

    Hi Joe,

    Thanks’ for the inquiry, yes the bike is a US import, we are one of only two companies in Australia able to import and legally comply these types of bikes. We replace the Speedo’s with Genuine Harley-Davidson KPH Speedo’s and can supply the original MPH Speedo if you require.

     

    Freight to Sydney is approx $350, we are a registered dealer in Both QLD and NSW and would supply the bike with 6 month’s NSW rego.

     

    All bikes come with new tyres, fully serviced and are ready to ride-away.

     

    Don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions.

     

    Cheers

     

    James

    I nearly got a second hand import that was out of (or so i was told) japan, turned out to be a US bike, I even left a deposit on it....Im glad I had it checked coz there were some signs it had been over. It was cheaper than anything going at the time but for the sake of a few extra $$'s it really didnt buy me satisfaction....

    get it checked, then double checked, then if your happy with it, check it again
