But I'm taking the dealer did not give you 21k for your bike so you had to finance the rest into the new bike? I also assume the SG has a few miles on it being an 08? The SG is nice though.

I just went the opposite direction.
I just picked up a 2013 Softail Slim - I traded a 2012 Switchback in on it...

So like we all are thinking, you did take it in the shorts. Your payments may be lower but you are also out alot of cash. But hey, if you are happy that's all that matters. The SG is a nice bike for sure.
