    There's a lot of extra's and work done that would have cost more than that but it's still a 1989 VN and unless you really like VN's I'd probably get somethiong newer at least a VT.

    Have a look in the cars for sale forum, there's better than that in there on a regular basis and much later models too. You planning on getting a roadworthy with the mini spool fitted?

    mate i wouldnt from the list you just made it sounds like a p plate thrash car. i would look around and find something that wont get every cop wanting you even if you buy stock and do the mods yourself

    its a VN with new paint (who knows how well done) with basically stockies with chrome lips on it, an exhaust and a minispool and lowered. lol not worth $5000, u can list alot of things done to a car and make it sound like an amazing deal but i would keep looking haha. i mean its a 1989 VN...

    The real question here is. Does it have a cop chip? If so, I'd offer 7k, just to make sure you got it.
