Good news -- I got my gloss black fork wind deflectors installed and I'm not appalled by the look.

Bad news -- my oil leak is back so I don't know if they did any good or not. Guess it wasn't the rocker box gasket after all. Goes back to the dealer Thursday.

Sorry to hear about the leak Gizmo. Hope they find the source.

Anyone have any experiences with either the Harley led turn signals or the custom dynamics led replacement signals for both front and rear. I have had good experiences with custom dynamics but now that I am getting a new bike I want to hear from the experts. thanks

Put CD LED turn signals and tail light on my Cherry. Easy install and they look and work great. Only wish I had opted to replace the sockets in the rear turn signals with the two circuit type so the I could have ordered the CD set that is both a turn signal and brake light. Would have been a little bit more wiring but I think it would have been worth it.

Don't know why H-D did not go all LED's...probably had too may bulbs left in their inventory.

Talking Awesome thread...

I am very close to pulling the trigger on a 2018 with the 114 in Wicked Cherry. The one piece of info that seems to be lacking here is pricing. I have been to several dealers and the best number I am gettting is $23,000 OTD. What sort of numbers did you folks lay down? That would be a cash deal but I might consider putting 30% down and getting it financed either from HD or the local credit Union. What sort of a rate should I expect?

Any advice as to which strategy will work the best? I have excellent credit {Fico of 834} so no issues qualifying. Would be adding a few do dads initially - Black moustache highway bars, set of fangs {Chrome or black?} and a small back rest for my bride. Other than that I plan on keeping it stock.

I am sure I'll miss my 2010 Super Gglide, great bike... at least until I swing a leg over the HC. Looking forward to the 114, ABS, new suspension etc., etc.. and oh that Wicked Cherry looks soooo good!

I installed the Custom Dynamics LED replacements on my '18 Fat Bob. Took only a couple of minutes, and is an outstanding upgrade. The lights are dramatically brighter now. I found the kit for something like $156, Revzilla price-matched it, couldn't be happier.

Thank you FrankEV and Fatbob

Captain Steve. Is that OTD including tax? I traded my 2012 super glide on a 115th heritage classic and the dealer treated me great. problem is taxes in NY suck. Bike sticker was 21900 with freight and prep. I added a couple of things like you mentioned and they gave me 15% off accessories.
Relative to rates Harley financing rates are pretty lousy especially with your credit score. I got 3.09 for 42 months which was very competitive

Thumbs up Yep, OTD = everything...

Yes, they started out about $2,500 higher with the BS dealer prep fees etc. Sales tax here in Tucson is 8.6% which blows but what are you going to do, no way around it. Tax and registration are about $2,500 so the bike was $20,500 with no junk fees. What did you get in trade on your SG? I'll probably end up selling my SG to a private party {no sales tax} as the stealership only offered me $4,500, what a joke. It should go for 6 - 7K.

I got the same quote from the dealer in San Diego but buying there would be a PITA. I'm thinking that is not too bad of a price but am anxious to hear what othgers paid. The local Harley dealer is sucking wind as their primary street access has been cut off due to major freeway reconstruction for nearly a year with at least another year to go. Traffic in the dealership has dropped off dramatically and these guys seem pretty hungry with the same bikes on the floor everytime I stop by.

Still haven't gotten up to Scottsdale, a hundred miles up the road, but reported to be the largest Harley dealer in the country so there may be some room to work with these guys as well.
