2009 Road Glide
I'm a 23 year old former sportbiker, now a Nightster owner. I have caught the touring bug, and have my heart set on a Hot Denim Road Glides. I rented one last weekend and knew it was for me.
I have the dealer quoting me 21,000 for an 09 with ABS and the security system (after taxes, freight, etc). I am truly a moron at this process, and am hoping for any insight that you presumably older and more experienced gentlemen might have.
I am taking advantage of the Ride Free thing they have going, and expect about 9500 for my two tone nightster. Is 21,000 fair? They said they don't negotiate from MSRP, but that is a little suspect in this economy. Have you all found this to be true?
Any advice, please feel free to throw it at me
Sorry if this belongs elsewhere... Mods please move if so!
Thanks for your time, I look forward to transitioning from sportbike forums to HDforums.

I bought mine back in November for $19,600.00, it had Cruise and ABS, I had them throw in the Security System to finish the Deal, with tax it came to around 21-22. I did have a Trade with equity in it so that helped me out. I would Shop around for the Best Price, Go to at least 3 Dealers and get Prices before you decide.

19049 should be the bike with the color option. Depending on what is listed I would say they will freight/prep/security/ bs you for another 1000. Then add tax......I would really look at it close.
You can go there "ready to drive away tonight", Lay your final price down and tell them to talk it over and let you know.
If they suck, go to another dealer.

You should definitely check a few other dealers before making a final decision. But, the sportster trade in deal is probaly a bit of gimmick. They will give you the full price for it but, you will pay more for the bike that you buy I am sure.

Go to HD web-site and look up the MSRP. You can check color options, abs, and security. Use the "estimate payment" tab at the lower right. It'll will give you the total price to finance. Just ignore the payment it shows.
PS, they all have cruise.

I was 20K out the door on my 09 RG with out ABS. ABS is a $795 option so you could do a little better than 21K but probably not much. I would say 21K out the door with the first service would be a good deal.

Thanks everyone for the prompt advice! I emailed several dealers within approx. 4 hours. Hopefully they will beat the 21k quote...
Side note: I'm getting the Nightster appraised tomorrow... they better not try anything annoying
