Default Contemplating a trade

What kind of deals are out there on Road Glides for year end inventory reduction?

I typically only buy used, but the dealers around me think these bikes are made of gold. They have 10's and. 11's priced at what they were new. And forget about any kind of discounts on new.

May need to travel to get a deal, so what are the good offers in you areas?

You walk in or ride in with that Mopar Lime Green paint, you better be prepared to bend over and take it!

I was at my dealer yesterday, 15 rg or sg at 3500 off and .99 financing till the end of the month. That was just in conversation, I would think if there was a real deal, a guy could do better.

I'm in iowa, if I remember correctly you re in either oh or pa. That would be a little travel. The gm is leaving today for the dealer meeting in Vegas, but the sales manager is staying back. If you re sincere, I'll hook you up with him, he's a stand up guy

Thanks, that is the the info I'm looking for. Iowa is far enough that the savings would be cut into by travel expenses, and may not be worth the effort.

I realize my color scheme is not for everybody. When I finished my conversion and painted it, my full intention was to keep her for a few more years, and run it up to 100 K miles.

I have to say, most people I run into seem to give me positive comments, but there has been a few that will tell me "that's an interesting color choice" and leave it at that. -love it or hate it, it grabs people's attention.

But it seems my mileage is starting to catch up to the bike, and things are just wearing out, all at the same time, and it's getting frustrating.

I will not bend over and take it. Before that happens, I would either do a complete rebuild, or move to the "I" brand.
