While there are no dues or fees for membership at El Camino
Central, we do rely upon member contributions to keep the site and server running smoothly. As membership grows, so does
site usage. Recently we have seen a huge jump in server load and bandwidth. As a result, at times we notice extremely
slow page loading. Many of you may have also noticed the new member rankings used to recognize supporting members.

I'm not sure on exact pricing. However a good ballpark estimate would indicate around 1500-2500 for one with minimal rust and a running engine. I just got lucky as all heck and found an '83 with 90k original, spotless interior, and only rust on the doors and one patch in the bed for 1300 in Ohio. They are out there you just have to look!!! And check them out.

Welcome to the forum David. It is common knowledge that 85's rule. Just ask Dougs85 (although he did recently stray into the '87 camp). Doug has an 85 for sale - check it out
Good luck. _________________ 77 HD Sportster

Hey Dave, Welcome aboard bud, and to region 2. Good luck on your search for a 5th gen. (Although I may beg to differ with Robby on which year rules) Enjoy the site......... _________________ Mark
