Những điều người mua nên biết
Last of the Evo Softails
These bikes use the proven air-cooled 1340cc Evolution V-twin, widely regarded as one of Harley's most reliable engines — 100,000+ miles is common with basic maintenance. Unlike the Twin Cam 88 that replaced it in 2000, the Evo has no cam chain tensioner issues, making it a favourite with long-term owners.
Check the rear isolators
The rigid-mounted engine transmits heavy vibration, so inspect for cracked exhaust brackets, loose fasteners and weeping rocker box and base gaskets — oil seepage is the classic Evo complaint. Also check the 1996-98 era charging system (stator and voltage regulator) and the swingarm pivot bearings for play.
Strong, stable resale value
Evo Softails have bottomed out and are now appreciating as the last carburetted, pre-Twin Cam generation, with the Fat Boy (FLSTF) commanding the biggest premium thanks to its Terminator 2 fame. Original paint, unmolested wiring and documented service history add thousands over a heavily customised example.
