Talking Who plans on buying a 2019

Put my deposit down on my 19 street glide special last Saturday. Just curious who all else plans on buying a new bike or maybe getting one. I ordered mine in the two tone scorched orange and black denim.

I got a great deal on trading in my 17 at my local dealer gave me 3k over clean retail for my bike they are giveing me more for it than I have for the bike so I can’t pass it up. Sales manager told me they should arrive on the truck the 22nd or 23rd and be on the floor soon after. My bike is not coming in on the first shipment so I’m not real sure when they will have my bike come in.

My dealer doesn't require a deposit, but the first scorched orange and black denim street glide special that comes in has my name on it !!

I’m hoping they do the paint similar to how they did the 18 cvo bikes if they do it will be one bad *** color with an all black motor.

my 2007 green meanie was awesome, bought it brand new and put $10,000 into it..that was the beginning of my hard learning lesson about resale value and the last one I did like that

I'm planning on it... Going to demo days next Fri at my local dealer. We'll see what happens.

I am considering a 19 Road Glide but it will have to be orange or forget about it.

I'm really on the fence between buying a low mileage used one or a new one. There are so many good prices on used ones with no miles that it makes it very tempting. The '17 Road Glide in orange is very nice but I'm leery of buying a used '17 because of the issues some folks had.

I've yet to ride an M8. I've been kind of avoiding it because most things I've heard is so positive I'm pretty sure I'd make the leap. I'm thinking about renting a Road Glide for a week to make sure I want to give up one of my softails for a Road Glide.
There is a demo days coming up but a 10 mile ride just isn't enough for me to decide.
