I'm interested in a 2000 Interstate that's sitting at Mason City Honda (Iowa). Anyone have a history with them? I'm wondering if there should be a Valk emblem on the tank? Pic doesn't show any obvious signs of repair but what pic would? Any opinions?  |

It originally had one held on by two sided tape. A lot of folks peeled them off with no damage.

Interstate letters/emblem is missing off the bags, and I think the trunk, as well.

Why remove the emblems and not the fender reflectors?  |

So do you think I could use that as a way to get the price reduced? And are those emblems still in circulation? I think I'd prefer to brag to the world about what I'm riding. Avoids confusion with those other cruisers.  |

If the 2000 model still says "made in U.S.A" on the engine block that will prove it's not a Harley  |

When people ask me-when did harley build something like that and i get done puking-i tell them-NEVER. Then i start it up for them and they can't seem to get over how smooth it idles.  RIDE SAFE. |

Looks like they even took off the front fender ornament. Is it my screen or does the blue look like it has a custom marbling?

See. You see it too, don't you? Be nice to get an in-person look at it. |
