2017 SGS Prices

Black, Blue, Denim, Charcoal or Velocity Red
List -$24,199
Invoice - $19,405
Offer - $22,300

Crushed Ice Pearl or Laguna Orange
List - $24,899
Invoice - $19,965
Offer - $22,959

Black Gold Flake, Hot Rod Red or Mystic Purple
List - $26,699
Invoice - $21,405
Offer - $24,600

The offer price is 15% over invoice.
Did you get these prices from seedealercost.com or were these numbers that you manifested through your own means?

The list price is from that website and I've confirmed with multiple dealers the numbers are pretty right on. The offer price is based off what a lot of dealers will do deals on which is 15% which I have also confirmed as well. Literally had one dealer tell me the 15% number. There is still a few hundred in wiggle room, but you shouldn't pay anymore that 15% over cost. If the dealer won't sell at these prices, call another one.

That's reassuring. I'm wanting to buy a 2017 Road King Special. It isn't listed on that site, but I'm assuming I can just take one that is similarly priced and it should translate pretty close. I have an '09 Fat Bob with 8,000 miles, a full stage 1 Vance and Hines exhaust, a quick latch windshield, and a sissy bar on the back. I've been in before and another dealer STARTED the trade war at $7,775 for my Bob. I'd like to bounce a few things off of you with this. Should I make a new thread? I don't want to high-jack this one.
