That sounds like a preliminary negotiating tactic to me. Make you think you can't get what you want then make you pay out the **** to get what you could have at any dealer.

Yep, they've been known to hold back new models before to rid themselves of the out going model year. Good to know they are out there...I'm looking forward to hearing reviews from those that have thrown a leg over one....

I personally saw two 2017 touring bikes in Batavia yesterday.

Test rode a Limited today. Great Torque and even better clutch. Great handling with upgrades. New screw in type secure screws for bags was a pain. Pulled three bikes on a buddy all out at a stop light and he said he was popping the rev limiter . Lowered his head in shame lol..I still wouldn't trade mine for it.

Yep, in the past many dealers have kept the new bikes in the back warehouse until the old ones were sold. Make sure you do your homework and don't believe stories of shortage and make the best deal you can, either on a '17 or leftover!
