Smile Had to do it

Well, stopped by one of the local dealers today. They had a leftover '08 Crossbones sitting there. Pearl blue with security. Marked down fairly well. After a bit of negotiating I walked it out the door for $16k even. What do you think?

Sounds like a good deal on one of the most popular models. I'd say you scored. Welcome to the addiction.

Thanks for the welcome. New to the Softail part of Harley's lineup but not to the addiction. That's been going on for a year now since I bought the Ultra.
