Default Buying Experiences - 2017 Touring Bikes

So for those who have pulled the trigger and purchased a Milwaukee 8, what was your experience at the dealer. Vaseline needed?

I picked up my 16 Road King today. Saw a guy pay $3k over.

Hahaha, maybe so. But I'm sure SOMEONE will be along shortly. There's too many new 2017 models in the dealerships today. And judging by the mass amounts of Harley riders that seem to congregate at all the dealers ALL DAY LONG, someone will pull the trigger.

They are going to use that 'free' 110 upgrade to keep the price at MSRP. Find a place with no special deals and beat them up on price until they cry (on 2016 models...2017 models? Unless you HAVE to have one, you are going to pay the most you will ever pay, and you'll be beta testing).
