You really have to know the msrp of the bike you're buying before you talk to a salesman. You may or may not be getting $1500-$2,000 off. I have a friend who bought his first bike since the '70's. He bought a 2014 FXDC, and thought he got a great deal because the salesman told him the msrp was $17,500, and they sold it to him for $13,900. He thought he got almost $4,000 off! MSRP of his bike is $13,500. I didn't have the heart to tell him.
I know the Low Rider runs $14,000 to $15,000 MSRP depending on color. I personally think that the LR is a $13,000 bike at best. You know how much sport bike I can buy for $14,000-15,000?
I will not fall for any oke-dokes like your friend. I have no trade-in and do not need financing. Unlike many HD riders who believe the only bike for them is a HD,I am not one of those persons. I can easily buy something else.
I am looking for a total OTD pride. If HD is offering a legit $1500-2000 off the 2014s, I will bite.

Price Paid
With the Amber Whiskey color and no dealer prep fees it was 14000.00, i felt good about the price having shopped 3 dealers in my back yard. They gave me a great trade on a rebuild title Sportster so nothing out of pocket. Pretty happy....

LOL WUT? I know that you may not have meant it, but that clause about not riding in the rain is just funny. If any bike cannot take riding in the rain on a regular basis then it should not be on the market; that's normal usage for many. Sure, I don't look at a tropical depression and say, "Man today is the day to get out and ride!" But other times you gotta get home from work or just get to the next waypoint in the tour. Aside from the first half hour (slick roads) rain is easy... so long and others can see you.

Its a National Cycle Deflector Screen in Light Tint.
They make a removable option but just like the sissy bar (non-detachable side plates) I didn't figure I'd end up wanting to actually take it off very often (ever). This seems to be the case with many others as well.

2014 SB Head Pipes and the applicable mounting hardware(the plate that mounts to the motor I had to special order). Yes... what ever slip-ons you prefer... I like the S&S that I purchased

Thanks for the information. I have been riding for 35 years and other than the first three bikes that my parents bought me from 1979-82 (ages 13-16), I have purchased 6 new bikes myself.
I know the Low Rider runs $14,000 to $15,000 MSRP depending on color. I personally think that the LR is a $13,000 bike at best. You know how much sport bike I can buy for $14,000-15,000?
