The Hard Candy is 3K more than Vivid black on Moco's website.

Indeed, private seller is asking $24K for blacked out 2018. Just shopping nationwide for the hard candy it’s about $26,500. Going too see what others can do.

I’ve owned both and will go either way. Most of my riding is within 100 miles around town.

Sure did. When buying I always think resale be it a truck, boat or Harley. Wasn’t a whole lotta love so resale would be difficult.

Try Space Coast Harley, they always have a big selection and they deal on prices.

Thanks, I'll give them a shot. Emerald Coast Harley came back to me at well over $2K under MSRP for the Hard Candy Red Flake and that's from one email to them granted I've bought from them before. The game plan is to walk in the door with a stack of $100 bills and out the door in about 45 minutes. Easier to deal by email, I don't have the patience to deal with salesmen, more often than not I've walked out the door and left a dealership due to the typical BS. I'm not playing that game anymore.
