They don't actually hit the floor at all: if you want to buy one, you go to the dealer, pick out the parts and colors, and then go home and wait for the phone call that it's ready for pick up.

My local dealer says they don't want to sell any off the floor... and the one I "built" was over $10 grand. for an "entry level" sportster.

I like the idea that the factory shifts the choices to the customers.
