Hi Folks,
Im thinking about buying a 2005 Vengance Vindicator-Raider (love the look) but never actually rode one. Looking for any advice/suggestions on how much I should be paying and also anything I should be watching out for and what Im getting myself in to. Ive owned dozens of bikes but never a chopper and never a custom.
Any suggestions other than “dont do it” are appreciated as Im already sold on the bike 🙂
Thanks,
Mark
