Lakeland has 24 SGS, but they will not deal.

Another dealer said HD will not let them sell below MSRP. hahaha

Walked on a 2019 SGS yesterday, 1500 miles on the clock. I offered 23K OTD, they wanted 24K. Sales person told me I was trying to beat him up over 1K.

Tampa Harley/Cigar City with its four stores couldn't get me one either, I wouldn't buy from them anyway.

Rockstar H-D in Fort Myers is as empty as I’ve ever seen.
They probably have 40 bikes in the showroom, and the used bikes are almost all gone from what I saw.
Im glad I got mine when I did.
