I wouldn't think they would do the 20% off and free labor....$1,000 off MSRP...don't know....if the dealer is a good dealer, with long time mechanics they may not need to discount.

It's usually the ones who pay low, have new people and try to to discount to increase traffic flow..either way good luck and remember sometimes you get what you pay for.

My local dealer just got a 2006 Road Glide that was supposed to go to someone in the military, but it didn't go through. They started at $1,000 off MSRP and $1,000 store credit.....

That is what I paid. $1000.00 off msrp, plus $1000 in savings off of store products. All their idea. I was so thrilled to be getting my 1st Harley, who knows what I might have paid. But I have been spending ever since then, they got their money back and then some, alot of sum. Still love it and thankful to have it.

So basically you pay 1k less than msrp, then taxes, tag and title and then on top of that they give you 2k worth of stuff from their store? No offense but that just seems way too good to be true. That's kind of like them just giving you 4k off a brand new bike (1k off msrp, freight and set up ~1k, then 2k accessories). Is it only on '06 models or certain models that they just have a million of?

EDIT: I just saw on their site it's free freight and setup on all models, free digital camera with new or used bike purchase, 12 month ext warranty on used, and there's a free shopping spree with any 2006 model which is 2k for big twins and 1k for xl's.

Stonemountain Harley Davidson in Stonemountain Georgia is dealing. I paid 14,750 for my 2004 Road King, their sticker priceand they threw in the sissy bar, pad and quick disconnect hardware and installation along with a Harley Davidson cover and leather andchrome grips and a $400.00 gift card for use at either one of their dealerships. I met the previous owner of the bike yesterday and he said the dealer only gave him 14,000 for the bike. They lost money on this bike. Yesterday when I was talking with the salesman he said they had to sell 18 new bikes by next week, so they are giving deals out now. Their show room is chocked full of new and used bikes along with the service area and the warehouse still has new bikes that areunpacked.

that ad that was posted above states 'free installation' and it would appear that the free installation would be valid on a 103 stroker?

The 07 heritage classic has msrp of 18.5k, they charged 17.5k. As you know 2-tone paint, security system, shipping and set up is all extra. Every thing seems to be extra. After purchased I received $1000.00 worth of coupons towards certain purchases- helmets, gloves, boots, option upgrades and crome, lots of crome. They also gave me a cert. for the first 1000 mile service. I thought it was a fair deal since I was ready to buy it at sticker price and they knew it. This was at Hannums HD, Media PA. They were nice to work with. Also free delv. was available and I live 125 miles away, but it was ona Saturday,and no delivery available until Monday, I would have never made it until Monday!
