the whole deal people want to get caught up in the last year thing is for example.
let's play the what if game what if you had a last year knucklehead or a last year Panhead?
that is where people get the romance of having a last year bike. Old-timer one time told me I should keep that Dyna because it was a last year Evo.
you know how often do we read on here investment? This Modern Harley is not an investment.

Been so close on two different occasions last year to trading my 2013 Ltd for a new 2016 RGU-then just this past week I was just about there again with a 2017 Indian Roadmaster which I was to the point of taking out for a spin. I really liked it from a static perspective-and still do. The dealer was getting ready to close so I went home without a test ride and thought about it some more-just like I did with those Rushmore RGU's I was going to trade up to last year.
After a nice ride on my 2013 Ltd today I am over it! Going to keep it for at least 5 more years. The fact that most of my mods won't fit a Rushmore and certainly won't fit a Roadmaster, and that I have the last year of the air cooled Ltd's, and it's paid for, solidified my decision. Is there anything to be said in having the last year of the air cooled Ltd's- or am I grossly overthinking it?
