Here is a link that may help nogtiate with your dealer. MSRP mark up is 25%.

Very interesting. Haven't seen that kind of link before.

There are a few links around with Harley markup. The legitimate mark up I found for the 2014 Limited was around $5,000 from the MSRP of 26k not 25%. Good luck using that to negotiate. I went to a few dealers and the most I got off was from a trade over allowance (increasing the trade in value when really discounting the new bike) for around $2k. The rest of the dealers I delt with stuck to their MSRP and real whole sale trade value for my old bike. They only get so many bikes per year and they know if you don't buy the bike at MSRP or close to it then someone else will.

I bought a new 2014 Ultra Limited for $23K including Freight and Bike Preparation. The only thing I paid in addition was Tax and Tags and Title.

I used in the negotiation process the invoice price from http://www.seedealercost.com

With the new 2015 coming out soon dealers should be more willing to offer good deals on 2014 models

If you don't mind telling what dealer did you buy your ride from . I ended up going to Space Coast .

And we wonder why used prices are dropping so low. If a new 14 Limited can be bought for $23,000 what does that make a 13 Limited worth at trade-in time, let alone a 06, 07, or 08? IMHO, Harley is buildings too many bikes. If the used bike market falls too much they will kill the golden goose. Owners will stop trading in resulting in fewer sales.

Really? They already killed the Golden Goose back in 03 when they produced the 100th anniversary bikes in astonishing quantities. And they even extended the model year. It was unreal what they did. And for the first time in recent history, dealers had new bikes on the floor. Anyone could walk right in to a Harley dealer and ride out on a new Harley, probably even on the color they wanted. And of course everyone thought the anniv bikes would be worth a fortune in a few years. Yeah right.

The price for that was that trade-in value dropped astronomically. I had been trading every year for about $3500. All of a sudden it was a new world and it was costing me $8k iirc. No more trading every year. That's when I started trading about every 3 or 4 years. That goose has been dead a long time now.

West Palm beach. No trade, cash, and over the e-mail with a total of 5 exchanges in communications with the sales. I never tested the bike, I just went there when we both agreed on the price and picked up the the bike all in about one hour and I was out. It was also at the end of the month in March.

quick question? I've only had used Harleys and im thinking about getting a new one. Typically when do the new models come out? August/September?
