I haven't seen any. They're still selling like hot cakes and haven't been out long enough to warrant dealers cutting prices. Maybe when the 2018s come out.

As long as the Dealers still have some 2016 inventory sitting around on their floors the 2017's are going to be pretty much MSRP.

MSRP is the new standard for dealers per the moco's directive at the last big dealers expo last year. Those who saying they got screaming deals I'm not believing, somewhere it still came down to msrp said and done no matter how they hid it.

They will however deal on the fees and don't be shy about asking for extras & services to be included, they know the buying public isn't going to take it dry hole so they will toss all kinda stuff in sweeten it.

I paid nowhere close to MSRP. $18.300 OTD for my bike. Not everybody is getting ripped off. M8 King, Blue/Silver w/Harleys no security system. Plus helmets, drive belt gauge, shop manual, heal shifter delete. Cash OTD!!!! Plus %30 off on all parts I've bought since purchase.

Look I went in just to see what the damages would be. I had waited forever to upgrade and finally when they came out with the 16 RGU I bit the bullet. Six months later the 107's hit. I was sick.To my surprise it was not undo able. Paid off my 16 and got a few hundo less then MSRP. Like 800 less is all. I lost one year worth a payments. Screw it the smile factor was worth it.

Surely they are not actually selling at $5k over MSRP. For a stock motorcycle? Or are these $5k over bikes murdered out? Was at Livermore HD a couple of years ago, and they had a BIG selection of Dyna's and Street Glides. All were covered in add-ons, motorwork, etc. IIRC, the only stock bikes they had were Sporsters, Softails, and the Trikes. If that's the case, then I can understand the mark-up. But if you're talking stock M8's, then I don't get it. Go to a neighboring city/state and save yourself a LOT of money!
