I'd go for it and then find a comfortable couch for the garage cuz that's where you'll be sleeping.
I'd take a couch and a bike over a bed and no bike.

Hurry up, i think the moco possibly still has the 4.99% apr on the '07s. Go in make the dealer a legit offer to move the bike. chances are he will take it to make room for the '08s. Good choice on model too

PamzJoe,

Take the discount and have the dealer set the payments to start in 45 days, that way you are covered. You save money and don't have a payment RIGHT now !!! Good Luck

When I bought my bike last year the dealer took a $1500 deposit and I paid cash a couple of months later. You might see if your dealer will hold it with a deposit....

Sounds like when I bought my Street Glide. I had the urge and bought it before discussing it with the old lady. It took her 3 weeks to get over it. WORTH IT!
