I have a line on a 2007 road glide rental from my dealer. 7200 miles for $14,700. Price is right and the miles don't bother me . what I feel bad about is 45-50 diffrent riders put those miles there. that is a lot of trips to red line and bounces off the rev limiter. My question to the members is would youbuy it ? Would you sleep good thinking about after you bought it ? The price is too good to just say no ,and they gave me a good offer on my trade.Thanks

Congratulations on the new Road Glide. I just bought a Demo model myself (07, FLTR vivid black). It sounds like you got an excellent deal. It is a very nice bike. I also rented some bikes and I have never been hard on them. I have ridden my 03 softail much harder. Have fun.

Holy crap, I'd buy that one that PapaTravis linked to! I've never been a fan of bikes with fairings before, but I've started eyeballin' those Road Glides. The one in the link is sick... and for only 12,500. I want to buy it myself! My bike is staying right where it's at though. I wouldn't trade it for any bike.

RE: Would you buy a rental ?
July of last year I bought a 2005 FLHT from Central Tx HD that was in their rental pool. Bike had 11,000 miles on it. I got all of the service records on the bike. The dealer had added numerous items to essentially make in an FLHTC. Out the door was $15K w/warranty. Bike has a couple of small blemishes on it but no biggie. I've now got 30K on it and a couple of 2000+ mile trips.....absolutely no problems. I'm leaving next week on a 6 day run to AZ and the mountains in western NM.
I'm actually going to do it again in 2010 on an '08 model w/ABS,etc. Didn't have to pay front end dealer profit, got to test ride it, and the bike had $2k worth of upgrades.....removable tour pak, stage one intake/screaming eagle exhaust/ECM flash, several of the more expensive chrome/flame bits here and there. Am I happy....you bet.
