Thumbs up New Harley Day -- LRS

I traded in my Electra Glide Standard on a '24 FXLRS. Holy ****, it's like I got in shape and snagged a hot, young girlfriend. I was iffy on the ergos when in the showroom but after riding around a bit I like them a lot, but then I'm short. Not a touring bike and I do miss the EGS on the open road, but this one is a much better all around bike. Went to sign the papers today and pick her up and wouldn't you know HD has 3.99% financing, so I got that, too.

Nice you were able to get the 3.99. Must be a local thing since they are only doing that apr on the 23 touring models

It may be local, but it just appeared today so maybe it's a bigger rollout. They were hanging the little tags on the new bikes when I got there this morning to pick up my bike. It's a good thing because the lowest rate they offered me before was about 7.25%, through a credit union. The Eaglemark rate was 9 I think.

Great pick up! Must be a local thing, my local dealer just sent out an email offering 1.99% if you buy a 2023/2024 touring until Aug 31st. After that 3.99%.

Do you mind sharing the sale price? Not the OTD. You can PM me if you don’t want to post here. Being in CA you can’t really get an OTD price because it’s all dependent on what county you live in

Thanks. I’m hoping to get a sale price of 22k or less

I would think so since these dealers aren't exactly having a banner year. Most of the big ones have 2023 stock. Still, they didn't want to budge on the sale price but they beat the trade-in quote from another dealer by $2,000, and negotiated away some fees (they gave me a really good trade in price). That helped with taxes, since you get credited for the trade in value. I think that type of deal is common with Harley dealers in this area, since it's what happened when I bought my EGS. Oh, I'm in NYS, so not applicable to CA (I should change the profile lol).
