Default One more try

I was at the dealer last Saturday and with a different sales person, I tryed
to do a trade on $20,500 Street glide. They wanted to offer 11,500 for my
lowrider which was right out of the book. I said they really needed to see
it because I added quite a bit to it and they admitted the could get $15,500
for it easy. Their manager wouldn't budge above $12,000. I don't get it, they
would have made a clean profit on the Street Glide. Anyway, I had to pass
again. My new job is starting to pay pretty well, So maybe next fall I'll buy
the Street glide outright and have 2-bikes. I got 5-months to warm the better
half up to the idea. Maybe bribe her with a new kitchen. LOL

mikec, Wow. For the extra 5g's you could add a lot of bling to you lowrider (but it don't look like it needs it). I don't know about the kitchen redo, "they" wanted $14,000 to redo a bath room for us. I told the guy "That's a wide glide, man". Done it myself and used the saving and my sportster and got a dyna.

Well I was gonna order me a Peace Officers Special Edition Road King a few weeks back and the dealer pretty much said that since they were on strike at the time that there might be a LONG wait on getting the Road Kind,.... so,...... I just spent the difference adding some goodies to my Dyna and finally got the wife convinced tto give me her blessing so I can get me a new Road King and get to keep my Dyna as well next summer when the 09's come out.

Believe it or not, she's taking the Rider's Edge Course this spring
and wants a Heritage Classic. Doesn't want the L.R.
