I know exactly what happened to you. I took my 2011 road king classic in for the brake light recall in December 2011 and fell in love with my new 2012 limited. Worst things could happen. Enjoy the new ride brother.

If I want to trade my bike in I don't have to ask my wife. I work for my money and if I want something I buy no matter what the wife thinks. Back in 2010 my wife was in the Philippines on vacation and both of use with out asking the other one ended up buying a new vehicle she bought a new truck and I bought a new ultra classic neither one of us asked the other

I think they have those darn sales just to get us in the store. They know our resistance is low. I get nervous every time I go to the dealer. I never know what might grab me!!

"But honey! I know $30k is a lot to pay for a new tire, but they threw in this beautiful '13 Ultra for FREE!"
