OP, what sound system is he swapping out? Do you have the stock stuff still? Do that yourself, save the 1,000 bucks for it, reinstall on the new bike,, sweat equity man, sweat equity
Why let the dealer have them at that price? Because $700 actual dollars is worth more to me than $900 potential dollars. The painted parts have a small market (gotta have that color bike AND want to add them), so they would likely end up taking up space OP may or may not have just to MAYBE get sold eventually.

'16? Hell no! '18? hell yes! But, remove your stuff yourself. Don't even go in there with it on. They'll just use it to low ball you.

$8,000 is just a bit too steep.
Good decision.

DRBuick - not sure I understand your post - you went from a 2016 to 2017 for $2900 out the door?

Did you trade your 2016 and that was the difference - or, are you saying you have an option to buy a 2016 or 2017 - the price difference was $2900?

sounds like you are unhappy with your current bike. Your deal sucks but I would do it anyway since you would be happier.. Life is short.

My bike: 2015 RGS 20,000 miles. Mine has Tour Pack and lowers.

Dealer: 2016 RGU New

$8000 to boot. That includes $1000 in labor to swap over sound system, mufflers, etc.

I could of course do this myself as well

If I take of TP and lowers, $8700.

Would you? Gets me a bike in the color I want (don't really care for my superior blue), New and another two years of warranty. I was planning on an ESP for 2015 for $1400 as well. So I could justify that into my savings as well.
your cash...do what you like...however i wouldn't...not too much difference in what you have...wait and get something new new...i would suggest CVO model..but i am biased

I think you made a good decision.
Btw, how many additional years of coverage on that ESP are you getting for $1400?
