Good lookin bike. You just get it? If so, from dealer? or private seller?
How much did it set you back? Not trying to be nosey but bought my
06 Fatboy in Oct and paid roughly $14,500 so I just wanna know that
my deal was at least about average.

Dealer.
More then 15 and under 20K.....
It only has about 1400 miles on it
and was all stock up to 2 weeks ago.I have a 01 EGC that I ride and a 80 FLT.The Deluxe was a impulse buy and didnt really care for it being stock so I never road it,Just liked the look...it just sat around then 2 weeks ago I desided to do something to make it more for me so I striped off the bars.muffs,air cleaner..
I now have a stage 1 with 12.5 x 1 1/4 Buff bars on it,looks like I will ride it a lot more then my baggers this year

cool... reading what you've written about it I can tell you're still proud of it. It's an 06 and you still only have 1400 miles on it? How do you folks do that?
Here's why I ask... mine is a daily driver but I live close enough to work that I can put as little as 100 miles, or as much as maybe 125 miles a week but that's still roughly 5000 miles a year. I can probably expect to put another 1000-2000 miles joy riding. If it wasn't my daily commute I'd probably still put at least 3000-4000 miles on it a year. So that's why I ask how someone can buy a new bike in 2006 and now it's almost 2009 and you only have 1400 miles on it? I know winter months probably account for at least part of the reason.
Hope I worded that correctly because my intent is not to offend.

Nice ride! I have Rush slip-ons as well. I started with the 1 3/4 baffle but stepped down to the 1.5 out of personal preference. You'll ike you 1 3/4's! I still have the 1 3/4 baffles and if my itch needs scratching I'll just put 'em back in. ...it's a 15 minute job.
Cheers!
