I wanted a Night Train since they came out with it in 1998.....wasn't able to get one until 2008.
Ten years I waited to get that bike. Yet, I ended up trading it for my SG after just 2 years.
Not because I didn't want my NT any less than ever....just that I decided I wanted the SG even more.
I miss the NT, but have never regretted it. My SG rocks.
If I was going to trade a 2012 or even a 2011 for a 2013 I would not spend a lot of money on upgrades. The dealer will not give you extra for the add ons. But I would buy items that can be taken off and put on the new bike. Example I just bought a new Corbin seat for my 2011 SG 103.
But... my problem is I really want to do the Stage 1 upgrade and add Rinehart pipes like I had on my older Ultra that I used for 8 years before I bought this SG. Decisions decisions....

Buy it now you wont be sorry, trade it in next year if you really have to have a 110th anniversary model thats what im gonna do if they come out with something that I really have to have, if not im already really happy with what I have now.
I went with the Corbin Solo Tour which seats me lower and is nice for my 6'2" size. I got the tour version because my wife rides with me from time to time and I like the feel of the back rests (which I already owned). Put 65K on my last Corbin on my 2001 Ultra. This is my seat but I do not have any studs: http://www.corbin.com/harley/baggers/hdflh9-st.shtml
