Stop taking HD1 orders either the middle of May or the 1st of June, I don't remember the exact date. That's how I ended up with the bike I have. Went in June 15th to order one and either had to buy off the floor, find one local, or wait for the 14's.

so i went for it today, tried to buy a 2014 denim streetbob. I wanted OTD price of $14.5k cash and they said no! I am a little surprised. They were dead set on charging me full price on freight. Looked it up later and saw invoice for this bike is only like $10,600 then add in $400 denim paint.
So the bike costs $11,000 and then they pay shipping.
Not sure why they wouldn't take $14,500 OTD. They initially wanted $18,900 !!!!! WTF
So I emailed a few dealers within 60 miles and offered that same price. I'll see if anyone bites. If not, I will go used, wait for 2015 or wait on a bike altogether.

Update to the above post. Another local dealer just called me and offered a lower OTD price than $14.5k and they will deliver it (its 30 miles away) and to pick it up tomorrow. They got my email and the sales guy called me from his home per his bosses request.
Now thats how you get business! So I will head over there tomorrow to finalize.

I bought my 13 in Feb and it was a lot cheaper. Of course it's last year's model and in the off season but I was upside down about 2 grand on my trade in and I financed just under 15k. 14.5k for what's about to be next year's model seems steep to me, but that may change in a few months

I wish I could predict that a new '15 model would have a gas tank with no dash or gauge on it, only a single "locking" gas cap where it is now located.
I would also like to predict that they would have same said cool model with a white faced, analog gauge module behind a Sport to Sport-touring fairing. Large speedo to the right of a smaller tach, flanked on both sides by smaller oil pressure, amps, engine temp, fuel gauge. Constant on digital gear and clock, and similar readout for trip info to thumb through.
All that over a nice set of dual disc ABS brakes, and first rate suspension on both ends.
Those things and more is what I would like to be able to predict for a new '15 model.
