Question Help, Is this a good deal?????

I heard it throught the grape vine a certain Harley place is sitting on a bunch of 09 they can not get rid of. I went there and saw the The Fat Bob Ive been looking for. Comes with HDsecurity, detachable back rest/sissy w/rack, medium pad and sundowner seat. I get the original seat too with the bike.
I live a cuyahoga and with the taxes out the door 15,800 for an 2009 Fat Bob. is this a good deal??

Greetings,

Depends on your tax rate and such...What are they selling the bike for? Any setup/freight charges? $15,800 strikes me as high, but if your taxes and title/plate fees are high it might not be too bad.

What dealership is it?

I believe sales tax in Cuyahoga County is 7.75%, so the bike with accessories is $14,663.

Sounds like a good deal to me, but I never priced out a new HD. I love that Fat Bob though, and adding those accessories after the fact will cost a bit. If it was me, and that's the bike I want, I'd pay that for it.

I believe his statement above says $15,800 is the total cost including taxes "out the door".

Sounds like a fair deal to me, ofcourse, you could try lowering a little. Fat Bob prices somewhat overlap with Low Rider prices, I got mine (vivid black) for 15,4 out the door.....for reference.

Yep taxwes are included in the price.
I believe I have around $900 in accessories.The addons include harley security, sundowner seat, backrest, with detachable hardware, rack, and med back rest for sissy bar. $1068 in taxes so the bike is priced at 13,782 Is this a good $ ??
