I took the opportunity to grill the salesman a little on the high quote they gave me yesterday and he gave me some bs answer about a radio and some things they added on at the dealership. If they’re going to be that desperate to sell bikes maybe they should lower their asking price. Again i didn't make an offer or haggle with him but i did tell him i thought the quote was pretty steep. Maybe they'll call me again tomorrow and offer to give me some sexual favors in exchange to purchase the bike lol.
I think they already offered you sexual favours. The only problem is that you were going to be on the receiving end of them. Lol

I thought people on facebook marketplace were the only ones smoking crack. Guess I was wrong.
Them bikes are made of gold. Know what you are will to pay and make an offer. Likely some new models coming for the 120th still. HD CEO had wanted No left overs on the floor. They blew that plan.
They may need to move it to get more new ones.
