it needs alot of work it used to be a bobber. but the guy thats selling it says it needs a battery a solinoid switch a pitcock that when it turned to reserve it leaks all the gas out and when it runs it leakes gas. it needs turn signals and probally a new chain and tires as well. is this a good deal or a bad one will it cost me more money to fix it than the bike might be worth.

TJ Admin Staff memberModeratorMember who has the rights to delete posts, and ban members form forum if they violate the rules.@Earnest Smith awful deal. i will never pay more than 500$ for a bike that isnt running unless its some stupid rare knucklehead or something like that. $900 for a bike that doesnt run AND has a laundry list of problems? you havent posted pictures so i cant say what id offer but he wont get $900 for it unless he sells it to a blind kid.

I currently own a Harley Davison heritige classic 2004 model im only 5'5 and 130 pounds i am a new rider lol i took the MSF course. i still owe money on this bike but im trying to trade in for a sporster or a more beginer freindly bike. my credit isnt great right now so its making it difficult on that end. and i live in the country so i have a gravel driveway. so 700 pounds is alot to handle on gravel lol. something that is lighter would help with the gravel and i think mid controls would be better as well.

You are Awesome!Possibility the tank is rusted, too. While not an issue if you will be replacing it, the rust will do a number on the fuel system. A bit of work. Just another issue to consider on the buy. Good luck

I think i just found a good deal a 2001 vulcan 650 for 500 bucks. it has two brand new carbs on it. and after tags and title 1190. new tires as well. i think this is a good deal. and it is a good beginner bike. so anyone else think this is a good deal.

I'm pretty sure, there was no Vulcan 650 in 2001. I tried looking it up for a while. Nevermind, the model number shows its a 500. Yeah, no 650 Vulcan in 2001. Dang though, bro. Your TT and L is more than the bike? Sucks. But, if you want a beginner bike and this one is running, yeah good deal. My first was 1800 and I probably over paid, but I loved that bike, and that's what matters. Good luck ro you, bro!
