Yeah, it engine / functional parts I'm more worried about.

IMHO you can throw the NADA value out the window for this bike. Prices I have seen are much higher.
"Parts" are not so hard to find, at least stuff that is interchangeable with other vulcans, or parts available from places like Ron Ayers. "Accessory parts" e.g. seats, saddlebag brackets, exhaust, etc are a little more challenging to find. Stuff that is Drifter-only and discontinued, like fenders, are pretty scarce.
But if yours has stuff you want on it, and it's in good condition, you should get tons of miles out of it and not need much in the way of parts....

- June 10, 2015, 20:51:16 PMHello all,
I just discovered the Drifter today. I sure do love the look of these! Would love to get one. I found it while shopping/window shopping for my next bike. I'm hoping y'all might be able to give me some perspective on a bike I found.
I found a 2000, 1500cc, with 31,000 miles. LOTS of extras: side bags, front bags, aftermarket seats, paint job. = $3000
NADA shows the value at ~$2800
It's a dealer bike but no warranty of any kind.
I worry about the availability of parts if I do have trouble. 
Thoughts? Recommendations?
Thanks!
