Hello from GA
#1

Looking to buy a  Vanderhall, thought the best place to start was on the forum.  I have a 2016 Street Glide Special but my leg is getting to a stage I won't be able to ride.  I also have a 1977 MGB which I enjoy a lot, reminds me of home.  Retired L.E.   Any pointers or what to look out for on a purchase.  Just came back from Warren Ohio and saw the Vanderhall' at the Harley shop and I am hooked

Don't have much advice for buying except with a bum leg the Carmel is probably the way to go.

Welcome to the forum. My advice about getting a Vanderhall is they are great fun but be sure you have a good dealer with a better service department that is not too difficult to reach. You may not have any problems, but my 2019 had multiple annoying and some serious problems from day 2! Went through 4 dealers and factory rep before finally resolved after about 8 months and much time gathering dust at various dealers. And those problems didn't include the "recall" issues that appeared to be fairly common. Sold mine before they showed up.

Check on insurance, I went with Grundy because they insure "toys" more than others like State Farm etc. I'm in Fl, $34 a month. Also check helmet laws (obviously with you having a bike you know but good to check. Test drive....you will cement the decision and I agree, the Carmel sounds like what you may need depending on your legs condition but if you can do a Venice (what I just bought) it's cheaper, you'll love whatever you get I'm sure.

Just traded my Street glide in on a 2022, VV got an amazing trade in value as they sell harleys and vanderhalls.  May want to try trading in your bike!
