Heys guys newbie here with first post but hopefully not my last. I need some advice. I am going to buy a 2003 Harley Davidson with 139,000 miles. It is in great condition and for a good price. I was thinking about just buying a 2001 since racing isn't really for me, so I could do without the supercharger but I'm sure my friends would always have something funny to say if I did, so I'm going with the supercharger. I am however concerned that I am getting a good running truck that will not have any problems after I buy it. What are some things to look for or at on this truck so i can tell that is holding up well. I plan to have the owner meet me at the local ford dealership and do an inspection on the truck and tell me the condition. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

P.S It has 142,000 miles on it, is that too much.

 

looks for pulley swaps

ensure it comes with the tuning device

the supercharged ones get better mileage when not driven hard


watchout for lack of 91 octane (or better in the tank)
