A friend who never owned a Harley was waiting for the 2009 Harleys to come out before he bought one. He was so excited. Well he died on Sunday in his sleep. Get my point?....this is a true story.

Rest in peace Dale.
Ok, now that just sucks. Poor guy, RIP! There's a good reason to go buya bike yesterday! Ya just never know.................

Alot of people have trouble ponying up to 21-22k for a Harley or anything else. They constantly call hd dealers and visit often.but just cant bring themselves to part with the money. It is a salespersons nightmare.Why do you care if someone asks you why you bought it? The answer is because you wanted it. Ask them how much they will contribute to the purchase and watch how quickly they change the subject. Dont let us here on the forum talk you into it. It is your decision and The Texas redneck I believe has your number. Good luck.
