    Hello. I’m a potential newbie from Florida with the opportunity to get on ‘03 Speedmaster with 13,000 miles. Three bike has been converted to a bobber. Is there anything specific I should look at with the bike? Any thoughts on purchasing what is almost a 20 year old bike?

    Hi and welcome. I would not be to concerned about the age as long as you have the full service history. If not then check all the obvious areas where you will see obvious wear and tear.

    Welcome to the family. Good bike but some did have dodgy starter gear. Check from cold for a rattle from the sprag clutch and starter on the right side. Probably well sorted by now but can cost if not.
