Hello from Ohio!
Hey all. Long time reader, but first posting. My '02 Road King Classic has a little over 58k on the odo but I've gotten the major itch for an Ultra Limited. I'm pretty certain that if the numbers line up I'll be making a purchase in the next few weeks for an amber/black '14.
I haven't been on the prowl for a new bike in almost 13 years and it is amazing how the sales culture at my local dealership has changed. Back then the stock was thin and you jumped on whatever color/model they had that you liked and you paid whatever the sticker said. Now they are offering to make dealer trades for the color I want, offering test rides and even saying the number on the tag was negotiable.
I suppose a dip in the economy and over-production can cause such things.
Anyways, I'm doing my usual over-researching on a big purchase because I know I'll have this next one for 10+ years.
Thanks for reading - see you around!
