if you really are going to get the new bagger,,save your money,,,it's really hard to get a good buck for a used bike no matter how much money you sink into it,,,try watching some bikes on e-bay,,and that will tell you what kind of money used bikes are going for,,

Sometimes, it's easyer to beg forgiveness than it is to get permission....

I listed for a touring bike for the longest time. Then I rode one. The handling at slow speeds was great but I don't often find myself touring around a parking lot. Since storage was a big concern for me I just weighed my options. I chose to keep the Dyna which I love and enjoy riding more spirited than I could ride a touring model and just put my money into some useful mods like nice detachable saddle bags and a Mustang saddle with a backrest. I no longer have a craving for a touring model and all for the price of about 4-5 payments.
