    I've been keeping my eye on a couple of local 2013 F6B's that are at $11,500 and $11,900. They are both low mile bikes and both have at least $1000 worth of add-on gear (Mustang Seat and Vance & Hines Exhaust on one of them). I'd like a new 2016 Matte White with the Cruise Control... but man, there are some deals on used 2013's out there that are hard to resist.

    I'm in no rush, so I'm just sitting back and watching the market. I suspect that as Fall and Winter move in, the prices will move down some more.

    Just my $.02.

    I agree with Jim,

    I paid 13 flat for a 2013 Deluxe with 120 miles on it in July.

    If this F6B that your talking about it in your area and close to you and you get good vibes from owner and you can tell that it has been WELL TAKEN CARE OF. Then I would offer him 10 or 10,500 and see what he says. At 10k I think its a good deal. (If its been well taken care of) But I also agree with Jim There are some great Deals out there. When I bought mine there was a 2013 STANDARD brand new at a dealership in TX that was asking $11,499
    Jim is also right about aftermarket goodies. The Mustang seat is roughly a 500 dollar item and the pipes are probably about 600 bucks or more. And if the bike has only a 1000 miles on it....??? GREAT DEAL The issue there is that you have to get the bike from the west coast so your costs go up.

    Bottom line.

    Dont rush. There are some great deals on this board and elsewhere. Especially headed into the winter months.

    $11K is a good deal if the bike is super clean. If you feel it's a good deal, then it is. Someone will always post up a better one right after you buy one anyway.....

    I'd rather be on my bike thinking about God than in church thinking about my bike.

    Remember not how a man died, but rather how he lived.

    Patience amigo....

    In Dec, Jan, Feb there will be mucho bikes for sale. Especially, if they've discounted this bike. However, 10K cash is what I would offer - if you want it now. Otherwise - wait for others in the winter months.

    btw, purchased my '13 B last March w/ 4K miles w/ warranty good thru Nov 2017 for 11K cash. Flew into PHX, paid cash, drove it thru the desert back to LA. Also, if your purchase is in cash w/ private party, have them leave the title and receipt BLANK where the purchase price is listed. Just write in 5K yourself to save 100's in sales tax b.s.

    Just my .02. Good luck.
