Default THAT DIDN'T TAKE LONG!!!

Darn it all! Just got this months flyer email from the local dealer... $1500 off select 2006 models. Looks like I bought mine four months too early. It's a darn good thing that I love my bike or there would be several minutes of pouting before the next opportunity to ride...SUM OF A BEACH!!

Yes, but that beautiful RoadGlide of yours would not have been available. Forget about it! Ride it! Love it!

Yea, I thought about what models they would have left over this late, so it was probably a good thing I got it when I did, even if I didn't save the $1500. Definatley not unhappy with it, and definatley not worried that its not an 07.

My dealer can't keep any roadglides around.
Every time I go to look, they are all sold already.

You did the right thing. $1500 off a bike you didn't want doesn't help any.

Aren't most of the touring models in Canada snow machines or pulled by a team of Malamutes?

Here's a little secret. There wil ALWAYS be a better deal after you buy anything. There will ALWAYS be a better model to come in the future. The people who wait for the better deal or the improved model are called shoppers. The ones who buy a bike they like are called riders !!!
