Default 14 or 15

I am purchasing my bike in Oct while i am home on vacation. Since the 2015's come out in August should I get a 14 or 15? I am looking at the SGS.

Ahhhh...the age old question!

Bunch of arguments for both..

Im thinking that in October the 15's, being all new and shiny, will go for that premium price.

The big dealers are going to be clearing space on the floor for August so you may get a great deal on that 14.
I know here in north Houston the big dealer has a bunch of Ultra Limited and SGS...

I haven't really heard of any differences other than the Road Glide coming back out.

I would say go for the 14. Better deal and I highly doubt that there will be in real change in the SGS outside of the color scheme.

I heard the 2015's will have a new, bigger vrod style engine. Also they'll be made in italy. And they're widening the front tire, but narrowing the rear

all kidding aside, there most likely will be no noticeable difference between a '14 or '15 street glide besides the color selections. And hopefully 2015 model year actually does mark the Road Glide's big return

I was a fan of the shark nose in the past but will have to see how they incorporate the touch screen into it.
