Default New Sportster Price

Stopped by a dealership here in CA for parts and as always checked out the bikes. For a 48, they were wanting 15k for the bike and 1k for "handling' ....that's like 17.5k out the door if you went with that pricing. Insane! Glad I bought from a private party, my used 2019 48 Special with 1k miles for 8k last winter. Can't see myself buying a new bike in the future ... perhaps an MSRP dealer like Laidlaws maybe.

Since it's apparently the last year of the aircooled Sportster, most likely they will get a big demand for that final production run. Price to market.

I have been playing with the idea of selling one of my Sportys. Almost pulled the trigger to put it up for sale earlier this year.

Decided not to given that they are going away. Waiting to see how the market shakes out in a year or so. Supply and demand, and it looks like the supply is going away.

Yeah they would need to pry my 2003 Anniversary Sportster out of my cold, dead hands. I still ride it on the regular for shorter rides
