Mileage is important. The lower the better. 25k+ is high miles on a cruiser.  Look for obvious signs of wear and leaks.  Check the tread on the tires, the oil level, the operation of the clutch and brakes, and listen for any weird noises.  These bikes are very quiet and smooth with the stock exhaust.


Hmm, okay. There are a few of these bikes in my area, I'll pm you the posts and you tell me what you think? :)

I definitely advise getting something bigger than a 1000. Bigger bike is going to be a more comfortable ride. I love Harley, but i wouldn't touch an 883 unless it had a fat tank, bars, forks, shocks, stretched, and forward controls. I'm a big fan of the Shadows when it comes to the Japs. I rode a 95 shadow 1100 for about 4 years before i got my Harley, and still pull it out of the garage and put miles on it every year.
