just hang on to your money for two months when it starts getting colder and winter is on the horizon. the dealers around my area still have a showroom full of 2010's, and with the 2011's out now, it'd be dumb to pay retail on a bike that's already depreciated by a year. it appears that you're looking for an 09 or earlier. you'll end up ahead if you sit on your cash for a little while and you'll find the right deal that you're happy with. i'm not sure but i'd bet that there are a whole lot of used harleys for sale in the michigan, ohio, pennsylvania, and indiana area. the rust belt where guys are laid off or plant closings have happened you know? it'd be tough to justify making payments on a harley when you're struggling to keep a roof over your head. if you're saving a few grand on the bike you find, you can fly there and ride it home. just a suggestion.

Default $17500 otd

I'm going to say BS on the $17500 OTD SG 2010 because I asked really nice twice for the Dealers name.
I can be anywhere in Missouri Saturday the 14th to pick it up!

usually, if they owe that much, they NEED to pay it off.

*** in Rock Hill did me better than anyone.

local guy here has a 09 Road King, no ABS.

"street glides are the new girls bike" is why they are so hot, all the girls are moving up from sportsters.

buddy has a 08 Ultra with ABS near Jax Florida if you are into that, ??

HD Financial will NOT do that ...
