2006 Harley-Davidson FXSTD/FXSTDI Softail Deuce in Rivers…
Harley Davidson Deuce sells for around 30 grand. It is the old law of supply and demand. The demand for this bike is high and dealers are challenged to keep a supply on hand. As a buyer that makes it a bit difficult to bargain the price down. Because if you don’t buy it at the asking price than the next guy will. But you do get what you pay for and there is a reason that this bike is selling as well as it is.
Here are a few details about the Deuce. It is a motorcycle that is part of the Harley Davidson softail line. This line of bikes is known for their adjustable rear suspension systems. Harley-Davidson is actually the originator for the softail suspension system. And those that are first are typically the best. Softtail means exactly what it sounds like it means. It is soft on the tail. Harley riders typically don’t ride their bikes to the grocery store. They are known for their long all day drives. That’s when a soft tail system is really going to be appreciated.
The Softail Deuce like all the other HD bikes looks really great. That is the emotional reason that people buy these motorcycles. The rational reason that people buy them is because they are quality built and have a lot of power. But the looks are what really gets you. And it’s one thing to see the bike in a photo that you will be sold when you see it in person.
This particular Harley Davidson bike looks smaller than it actually is. And this bike is known for having a lot of chrome. Do you remember that country music song from a few years back? Chrome, chrome, everywhere is chrome. That song could be an apt description for the Deuce. So according to the song the women love all that chrome, and so do the guys. It does make for a beautiful motorcycle.
However, as with buying any bike, you want to take it out for a ride and make sure that the sun doesn’t create too much glare reflecting off of the chrome. That might help oncoming traffic so you better but you wouldn’t want it to blind you said that you could not see. So make sure that the bike works for you.
We mentioned earlier in this article the hefty price for this bike and it would be a great temptation to try to find something cheaper. And you may be able to find something less expensive, but it will not be as high a quality as the Harley Davidson brand is known for.
One final thing about this model is that it is not as loud as some of the other cycles are. That may be a negative for you or it may be a positive. If you love the roar of the loud engine then you may want to look at other Harleys. But if you want something that won’t cause you and your neighbors to become deaf, then you’ll want to consider this bike. And if you decide later that you want a little more sound you can always make adjustments in the pipes.
