Hello.

Not new to bikes, and own 5 Harley's I bought new - ('03 FatBoy, '08 NightTrain, '16 Road Glide Special, '18 Street Glide Special, '21 Low Rider S).

I have always liked the BD Chopper brand, but never pulled the trigger for one. A buddy owned a new one years ago and I always admired it.

I'm looking at purchasing a 1-owner 2006 BD K9 that appears to be a well cared for bike that was ridden. 20k miles, S&S 117, Baker RSD 6-Speed.

Other than the obvious, is there anything else I need to know about these bikes to ask further questions prior to purchase? Are there any known issues of certain mechanical issues I need to be aware of?

Lastly, the bike is pretty damn clean. Whats something like this really worth?

Appreciate the help.....thanks.

Ask about any transmission issues…. That’s the biggest problem of all in my opinion with the’05 & newer models. That Baker 6 speed had a problem with the main shaft splitting in two. No parts are being manufactured by Baker any longer…

Yes tranny usually has problems around 20k. If the ech hasn’t been replaced you’re probably going to have trouble there too. Pictures and more info needed to be helpful about value.
