So where will I find the best bang for my buck.
Building exactly what I want online or buying from a dealership or going to a bike show?
Does Harley give incentives to purchase one way vs another?
I live in Edmonton...So no riding until spring, and I have a bike show here in January.
So what does the group say?

 

check out the bike show

 

All of the above. Can never get too many ideas. Just when you think you've got it all figured out, something else will come along that you like better. Part of the disease.

 

I'd guess not the dealer unless you want H-D branded and they are having a special sale.
The best deals at bike shows/events are at the end, when they don't want to pack up the stuff and haul it home. Of course inventory has been picked over and selection may be thin.
Swap meets can be good if you have negotiating skills.

Sometimes you just have to shop around,know what you want and know the best price when you find it.
