Default 883 Custom OTD?

Hey all,
&nbsp\\; I'm in the market for a 883 Custom (vivid black) and am wondering what a decent OTD price is.&nbsp\\; I stopped at a local Harley shop and was informed that an '08 retails in the mid to high 7's, but the OTD price would be the high 9's to low 10's.
&nbsp\\; Does that sound about right?&nbsp\\; What are some other OTDs quoted/received out there?&nbsp\\; If it helps, I'm in the SE Texas area.&nbsp\\; Thanks all!
&nbsp\\;

PS - Cool forum, btw.&nbsp\\; I know this is my first post, but I'm immediately going to introduce myself after this post (I want to be able to link this thread).

My '07 883C w/ security system&nbsp\\;was just under 10,000 OTD - I got the deal to knock out about $300 (their "fright" charges), but that's about&nbsp\\;all they would budge&nbsp\\;- they basically were selling them within a day or two of getting them at the shop at the time so they didn't really need to make a deal...&nbsp\\; I'm in Boise, ID.

I think low 9 to high 10 is about $1000 to high to start with, of course a lot will depend on options and the time of year.&nbsp\\; I got my 2008 XL883C in December for $7900 OTD.&nbsp\\; No dealer installed options, just a basic xl883c&nbsp\\; Buckminn's Harley Davidson, Xenia OH.

+1.&nbsp\\; I only paid about $10500 or so for my 1200n OTD.&nbsp\\; Are you getting any add ons?

I didn't plan on getting any add ons.&nbsp\\; At most, maybe the security option.

11,050 out the door on my 1200C, and my dealer would not budge either.&nbsp\\; Just gave me a free half helmet.&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; Low 10's I think would be high for an 883C.

8220 OTD for me. 2007 883C with nothing other than the fire red pearl/black pearl paint up-charge and the rider's essentials package installed.

To me, low 10s OTD seems right. I live in Southern California so bikes here are expensive.&nbsp\\;I saw the 883s going for about 10 OTD here. So other parts of the country, you should be able to get it under that. Good luck man!
