Do you wrench on your bike? If you do your own work it would probably be cheaper to buy a regular Glide and put your own goodies on of your taste/choosing
If you don't work on your bike then it might be cheaper to buy this bike cause you'll probably save more time and $$$ than from paying them labor fees etc to install all your stuff on a different bike

This is a brand new bike. They take them and customize them and call the Barnes customs. I have the paperwork for all the stuff that has been done and it totalled 6730 plus tax. I tried to post a pic of the list of stuff that has been done but it said that it needed to be approved? The other thing that I forgot to mention was they said that i would get 20% back in store credit ($1350) on all the work that they have done. I have priced out a standard sgs and it would be $31000 otd. So it seems like a decent deal but they are not really budging on the price at all. From what I have seen there usually is not much negotiating with Harley?

Thanks for the input guys. I think I will look around a little more and see what some other dealers have to offer. I am now considering a stock sgs and doing all the work myself.

we only get 75 cents on the dollar with our exchange rate being so low. The more I think about it the more I am thinking that I am really not getting a deal with the bike. There are absolutely no discounts at all on all he add ins so I am just going to look for the best deal on a stock and get them to put what I want on it.

Would be nice to see the list of items done.
Are they charging full retail on the parts, full retail on labour, then keeping all the take off items?
Or are they crediting the take offs?
If there is no discount on parts or labour, plus they keep the take offs (which you could sell), then I would run!
