This is exactly why I refuse to buy a 2014 and am sticking with my 2011 Ultra that I bought for 18k with 2500 miles on it with 2500 in upgrades all ready added. This is my first bike and have learned in one year of riding that everything stock needs to be upgraded at some point. I think harley has it all figured out that all of us like spending money at their parts counter. I upgraded to the J&M system and absolutely love it.

Currently looking at a Ohlins suspension system and I will still be under what you paid for that 2014. I wish you luck, I will buy a 2015 in a few years there are plenty of used bikes out there much cheaper with next to nothing for miles on them. I like my money

I would disagree. A bike with 2500 miles on it is still new and heck if I bought a new one i would have 10,000 on it in 6 months then it's used again.

But I do get your point just is not practical in my opinion.
