Not sure what area you are in but here in SE Lousiana most dealers are giving $1500-$2500 off of MSRP.

Hey 100thRK,

I'm in Colorado. Getting them to knock off the additional charges over MSRP is usually the best you can do here. Plus, by the time you've paid all the taxes and gotten tags on it, that's another 10%+! Oh well....

Best wishes,

John

Picked up my 08 Ultra POSE in November last year. After 5,000 miles its still a awesome thing to ride. Great bike to load down and head out on the road to far destinations. Best bike I've owned to date and still brings a smile to my face. Congrats on your upcoming purchase. Time to ride...

I ended up haggling for a few days, got two dealers bidding against each other,and managed to save a bunch of money.$1000 offMSRP + tax out-the-door withfree security and free laced wheels. Closing the deal today. Bike will arrive in about a week. End-of-'08-production-run two tone red Ultra. I'll be putting a set of Lyndall brake pads on it to keep the rotors shiny but that's all. I'm gonna just ride it & love it!

Best wishes,

John
