He's developed vertigo problems and can't really ride it anymore.

Come to think of it - his uncle has a 1998 Heritage Softail he was looking to sell as well. He has some nice chrome pieces, saddle bags, etc.

Both bikes have been garage kept. Hubby just spent over $500 getting the carbs rejetted, tuned up, etc. Hence, my pushing for him to sell...
PM'er Airgasm....I think he is in the market for a bike

Well, sort of - but I just think he has lost interest. He has so many other projects going on right now ('66 Chevelle SS being restored, '68 Vette being restored, '56 Chevy he's restoring for someone else) that the bike just doesn't get used.

And, I'm tired of paying insurance and tags on something that sits in the garage and collects dust.

I get 10-11K miles a year on the bike and maybe 3k in the car.

I hear you - it only took one time of him feeling like he was on a "magic carpet ride" on the bike for him to not trust himself anymore. Fortunately, the vertigo did subside somewhat but now he is very gun shy and won't go any distance on it. We used to be on it every weekend, taking long road trips, and I know for a fact that I haven't been on the back of it for 3 years.
