Perhaps the greatest appeal of the motorcycles that Harley Davidson manufactures is that they are not throwaway machines. With proper care and maintenance, a modern Harley can outlive its owner. Most of the Harley Davidson motorcycles built over the past 25 years are still on the road, which means there are many, many used Harleys bought and sold every day. This book provides a practical guide to purchasing the most common Harleys on the used bike market: the aluminum engine machines built since 1984, the Evolutions (Sportsters and Big Twins), Twin Cams, and liquid cooled Revolution bikes (the V Rod models). These are the bikes being bought and sold, and these are the motorcycles most widely used as daily riders. Harley Davidson Buyer's Guide provides everything a reader needs to know to purchase a sound, reliable, enjoyable Harley Davidson Big Twin motorcycle.
