Sounds like I'll give Raliegh, NC a shot!
If you're in/near Raleigh, swing by Shelton's in Durham. Ask for Kenny or Dave in Sales. I just got a bike from them. Quite pleased.

I would knock $500 or so off that price and see if the local dealer can beat it. Otherwise the local guy will come back a few hundred less and it really wont sweeten the deal up much.

Also one thing you have to remember you are getting it tax free (at least I could while overseas). That plays a big part in it. Also dont be in a huge hurry. See what the dealer can do. It is usally better to have a dealer back you they seem more willing to help you when you buy from them.

$18,500 is a good price if it includes freight and setup. Not a bad price even if it doesn't. Regardless, give the dealer a chance to beat it. Why wouldn't you? My guess is that your local dealer can do a little better, probably by almost $500.

Thanks guys.
Ray Price is High...Check Rocky Mount and Greenville NC...Shelton's adds $1000.00 IN ACCESORIES so your choice...I bought Mine From Shelton's cuz i wanted the $1000.00 for the Cruise and pipes and grips...other than that...Greenville and Rocky Mount had a better price....I may be wrong...give Ray Price a chance, they were higer for me at the time....

By the way , thanks fo the service.....
