Used 2015 Deluxe - good price?

Hi guys. First time poster...long time lurker. I have a friend who is looking to sell his 2015 Deluxe. He wants 14.5 for it. Has a little over 2000 miles and looks in great shape. I was originally looking at Valkyries and found a new one for 12K. Really like the looks of the F6B but not sure what the better option for me is. I think I like the potential to eat up highway miles and tour a bit on the B...but I didn't realize how small the storage is. Still...it's better than the C storage. Curious to hear what you guys think and also if you think the price he is asking is good.

Thanks guys.

That is a great deal...if it has any add ons then it is a super great deal !!!!!

That is a good price for a 2015 deluxe with only 2000 miles on it.

It's a steal at that price.
Go for it.

Thanks for the responses guys...so you think it at that price is better than a Valk for 11? I know I'm asking a biased group :). Valk looks pretty cool as well.

No radio on a Valk or storage.

or windshield/fairing, cruise, heated grips, etc

Extra storage on the B is a no brainer, you can add a travel bag rack on behind the seats and put just about any extra bag there. If your a lone riders the rear seat makes and excellent place for one of Kuryakyns large travel bags. Your crazy not to pull the trigger on that deal, very few for 14.5 with 2000 miles on them. Step up to the Cadillac of touring bikes, it won't hurt a bit.

IMO, the saddlebags are ample too. Friends with Harleys and an Indian can't store helmets in the bags like I can.

Hey guys...thanks for all the responses. Turns out it is NOT a deluxe...just a blue 2015. No heated grips...center stand but does have a passenger backrest. I'm still thinking about it but not as good a deal as I thought.

I agree---and don't forget about the fixed fairing and superb wind protection with just a few tweaks.

I like the looks of the Valkyrie much better, but I am not sure if I want to deal with no wind protection, storage or radio when on long rides--- "Long Rides" being defined as an hour or more at a time.
Guess I am getting soft in my old age.

I think good price.I know I overpaid when I bought mine after Sen what these some of these riders bought theirs for.I can say u will truly enjoy this motorcycle.I rode thru the winter with the klockwerks an heated grips .I rode crotch rockets in my younger days an this f6b handles remarkably .The storage is adequate for me an my wife an comfortable..good luck whichever u do slim

Thanks guys I am really bummed it wasn't a Deluxe. Now I'm back trying to decide between a new 2014 Valk for around 10.5 and a new 2015 Deluxe for 17. Thoughts appreciated.

From a comfort standpoint, I think the F6B is a better investment. Like others said, wind protection and storage go a long way in comfort and convenience. The Valk won't have cruise control, heated grips, or sound. The F6B will offer more comfort for a passenger if that's a consideration for you.

You can always add some storage to the Valk. Corbin makes some hard bags for the Valk but they'll set you back close to $2,000. I'm sure there are less expensive options. Add a windshield and that's probably another $300. Adding a passenger backrest will set you back some more.

The Valk is a sexy bike, no doubt. It boils down to what YOU want in a bike. There's no right or wrong answer. It's your personal preference.

Good luck!

The Valk is a good looking bike, but not really set up for anything but riding alone and without stuff. nowhere to store a second helmet, or a 6 pack. The windscreen is too small, and the rear lighting is pretty small.

Get the F6B-D. I got a 2016 F6B-D for less than MSRP, but still kind of overpaid.

I am thrilled about my purchase and would do it again.

I think its a good price. He's not giving it away but if its nice and like was said above if it has any add ons , even just a windshield , its more than fair. I like the Valkyrie but no bags and no shield is roughing it.

Shooter you think 17 for a new 2015 Deluxe is a good price? No extras...just a stock deluxe. I am leaning towards the B but that is a LOT more cash to drop :).

Just for comparison...I paid $16,800 for the standard at the end of last season. That was in CT. If you can get them in the 16's now that the 2016's are out...we pay more on the east coast it seems.

I'm with Duke VA. Its not long till the 17s are out. Offer them $16,500.

You gotta disagree with me once in a while...they might think we're friends or something.

Hey we're both old. Although I'm not near as old as you.
