Ha! Money always matters. No matter the purchase, I always want to feel like I was treated fairly. Never paid MSRP for a bike or asking price on a home....It's not in my DNA.
However, I did pay MSRP for my TRX. Dealers in FL are still asking 10-15k over MSRP, but I was able to find one at MSRP.

Greetings,
I recently visited a dealer in Southern CA and they were asking $10,000 over MSRP for the CVO models and $4000 over for the Street Glide Specials. Crazy prices. I also heard that Ford was selling a white pick up (probably the best selling vehicle in the world) for $3000 over and $5000 over for a gray or black or other color.
Sellers market.

My local dealer has prices posted on all their bikes, even the few CVOs they have on the floor. All at MSRP, plus delivery, taxes, doc fees
and that was it.
Edit: BTW ^^^^. Thanks for your service. And there is no such thing as a Former Marines, there are just Marines.

I looked at their website. Though they do show MSRP, there is an * next to the price.
* Prices listed are the Manufacturers Suggested Retail Prices for base models. Options such as color are available at additional cost. Prices exclude tax, title, licensing, registration fees, destination charges, surcharges (attributable to raw materials costs in the product supply chain), added accessories, and additional dealer charges, if any, and are subject to change. Harley-Davidson reimburses dealers for performing manufacturer-specified pre-delivery inspection and setup tasks. Dealer pricesmay vary.
Thats a lot of wiggle room and leads me to believe you aint getting any bike at MSRP. The bold text is the gotcha.

FWIW...
I live in N. San Diego County. I use Biggs for parts I don't want to wait for, from an online vendor. I haven't looked at their prices on new bikes since... well, forever.... I've had a couple friends buy new bikes from them, and they recommend Biggs.
In Jan 2018, I was looking for a used 2016 Ultra Classic. I wanted specific options, etc, etc. I didn't care if it was private sale or dealer, but I was looking for a certain price point...
The only '16 Ultra Classic I found that met my criteria, was at Simi Valley HD. It is located about 140 miles northwest of Biggs HD in San Marcos, CA.
During the purchase, I was talking with the Sales Manager of Simi Valley HD. He saw my address, and realized I lived near Biggs HD. He asked me my opinion of them, and I shared my experiences I've had with them over the years. All of it from the parts department. I never bought a bike from them, nor have I used their service Dept.
During our conversation about Biggs, he mentioned that Biggs usually has such good prices on new bikes, that he has lost several former customers to Biggs... Biggs beat his prices by enough that former customers travelled 140 miles away to buy a bike!! He mentioned that he was unable to beat their prices and when someone says they saw a bike at Biggs, he just tells them he can't beat that price. He doesn't even waste his time trying anymore. He mentioned he doesn't know how Biggs can charge the prices they do and stay in business...
Now this conversation took place in January 2018. That's three years ago, and these are different times... but I filed it away in my memory. I felt it was a pretty good, albeit accidental, testimonial on Biggs' new bike prices....
