You used "discount" and "HD" in the same sentence. Bravo. :lol:
Eh, but what do I know? Maybe they're having to bend with the economy just like everyone else. :idk:

Agreed.
Maybe some low buckhorns.

I think they will still find people to pay the over inflated prices.

There are used Harley's EVERYWHERE. Tons of people thought they NEEDED a Harley only to find out they really don't.
For the record . . . I like the crossbones.

HD = hundred dollars, increments thereof.. and usually not 1 or 2.. usually in the double digit range..

Yet again from the busa board
Check Cycle Trader and look for the dealers that list "call for price". I believe their licensing agreements prevent them from advertising below MSRP. I just bought a 2011 Road King for well below list, 20% discount for additional purchases, and a bunch of free stuff thrown in.
If a dealer starts giving you BS about hard to find, limited production or tries to boast that they don't "mark up" from msrp, don't waste your time, just leave and find another dealer. There are a lot of good honest dealers out there. NEVER pay MSRP !!!
and when I was riding thru El Paso, they had a huge HD Dealership.supposedly they still slot because they discount and ship (maybe to mexico?)

I believe that's Barnett's.
They're the ones with the Fly & Ride program.
They pay $200 of your airfare to fly out to El Paso and you ride your bike home.
From El Paso to Houston, you'd be well into your break-in by the time you got home.

I've rode one. They have em down at my dealer for demo's all the time. I test rode one... I didn't like it in stock form but it can be modified to fix some of my issues with it.

I think so, I see the springer soft tails and think they look like poo, but with the beefy tire it def looks better.

They are ultra cool to watch rolling down the road.
When I test rode one of these I was aiming for pot holes while sticking my head around to watch the springs do their thing.

tell him a guy named Terry who bought an Iron sent you. It's up to you to figure in the shipping. pricewise you'd be hard pressed to beat them. I'll warn you what he did for me was say name your price. I gave him a lowball number and he took it. well under list. no BS charges either. good guy to work with.

Is your s relatively stock, performance wise? Have tje factory risers?
Is your s relatively stock, performance wise? Have tje factory risers?
No real performance upgrades, but truly it doesnt matter. Even with the 110ci kit and a good cam, you'll barely break 100hp, 110lb/ft torque.
A friends dad has a 140ci S&S in his heritage, and it doesnt have the power of a new 600.
