I don't think the deal will get any sweeter...another "go for it" from my perspective.

They have a pretty small place and need to get rid of the 15's to make room for the new models. Unfortunately he wasn't able to offer me a good price on my current ride, he suggested that I sell it privately to avoid taking a bad offer. I understand that being a small shop they don't have much room for older bikes. I may consider doing that, I really want that RGS!

ok its Saturday the dealer is open and we are all dying to know what your going to do ?

By any chance was that 18k plus things like $1000 dealer setup? If not I say go for it.

$18k for a new Road Glide Special is a smoking price. Hope it works out for you.

That statement is complete nonsense and you know it. Just simply isn't true. To the OP buy the buy the new one and sell yours later. Good luck..
