You made me do a Craigslist search. This seems like a good deal even though it has 38k miles. https://charlotte.craigslist.org/mcy/d/rock-hill-2007-yamaha-fjr-1300/7212647010.html

 

38k miles on the FJR is barely broken in. When I got hit last year in TN my 2007 had just turned 127k. If you know anything about the Iron Butt Rally just look through the years at how many FJRs have been top finishers. In at least 2 occasions more FJR1300s finished the event than had started it. In 2019 my personal FJR was one of those cases. If you get serious about buying one PM me and we'll chat. I know these bikes pretty well and bought a 2014 to replace my 2007 just one week after my crash. Extremely reliable, easy to service, good aftermarket support, and woefully underappreciated bikes.

 

That's not a Super Glide it's an Electra Glide. Super Glide is a Dyna family bike with forks that look more like a Sportster. Baggers are FL based, touring frame, larger front forks with the tin cans on them.

 

You didn't get one when you bought the bike? Dealer gave me one.

 

I didn’t get shit with the bike. I still don’t even have plates

 

You ever reach out and demand your free tshirt?

 

Woke up a bit earlier so I could call at 8am... well they don’t open until 9am on Wednesdays... useless government programs

 

Here is the SPOT page from my Co-Void rally

 

Well finally got to talk to someone today. They confirmed they have my paperwork and title (so that’s at least good) but they’re only on July 16th mail.... mine arrived on the 20th. So another “few days” until they get to processing mine.

Thanks mike. Yeah thats on my want to get list, haha.

 

I almost bought number bike last year. Was sitting on the dealers floor for a year. I was going to pull the trigger till I seen the burnt orange, and changed my mind.

 

Nothing wrong with buying a Harley with a numbered paint set. Just bear in mind those are dealer installed paint sets. There is a full set of painted parts that came off that unit. Push for getting those take off parts.
