Default I missed it!

Saturday I was at a dealer to pick up some grips for my wife's Low Rider & spotted an '06 Black Pearl Road King with only 1,537 miles on it.[sm=drooldude.gif] There had been no mod's done to the bike, it was "bone stock." The price tag was $14,495 & while I was standing there another guy told me that he heard the sales people say that it would sell for $13,750. [sm=insomnia.gif]
I was just about ready to walk into the sales office to talk to them about it when, as my luck would have it, one of the salesmen walked over, took the price tag off the bike & said, "well this one didn't last very long."Someone had just put a deposit on it.

I seem to get that a lot myself. A day late and a dollar short.
