Now Now, there is a difference between between a Tag and Timex! I am a big Watch Nut! I have a few Tag's, Monte Blanc's, Hamiltons and i am still collecting, if they were all the same, we would have never bought a Harley Davidson, Instead we'd all be riding metric cruiser's right??? LOL

This is actually what I have been seeing as well. When I look at places that are selling both, I find that the softail customs are higher mileage as opposed to say the sg customs (or even WG's and Low Riders)....same years etc...and still the price is usually a grand or so higher. Just can't seem to figure what it is that makes these bikes worth that much more.

From Harley's Web site Jim. Fat Bob 14999 Fat Boy 15999
15999 - 14999 = 1000 You even posted those numbers in your own post.
And look a Road King 16999, well I'll be thats a difference of 2000!

sorry I'm just saying, there can be a large price difference between different msrp's. i dont think that it gets any bigger for re sale though, ie there is no difference between models as far as holding value all are the same, nothing holds value really... you start losing money the minute you sign.

I agree. I don't even understand why I'm fighting over this topic.

Softails probably hold a little more resale % from MSRP....again... demand....Touring models have great resale here in Fl. In Tampa area the touring bikes outsell the rest of the lineup by about 2-1.
