It’s a buyers market for second hand harleys.
Seems to be the opposite in WA. Used clean Harley big twin prices are thru the roof.
Good mate of mine bought a 2015 Fatboy 2 and a half years ago at the bottom of a "slump". Paid $15 K plus stamp duty , a good buy at the time !
He late last year sold it for (and Instantly mind you, first weekend !) on Gumtree for $19,500. Can't believe his luck ! It was a super clean bike tho' !
Then he sets off to buy a Heritage Deluxe to take the missus on the back etc , has real trouble finding one "at the right price"
Finds a real minter 2008 (!) at the HD dealer , pays them $21K plus stamp duty. 8,900 K's one owner thing very clean like a lot of them.
Fully loaded , Deluxe bags , rack/sissy bar , screen etc etc.
Shoulda kept his Fatboy and put bags , sissy bar and a screen on it ( hindsight and all that !).
This scenario may be restricted to WA , I have seen all that before now as things cycle , peak and trough.
2 and 3 years ago used big twins were way down here , and bargains aplenty. Think a 2007 CVO Springer privately for $17K !
