Default 110th Anniversary Road King! Wow

I was not expecting to get this Anniversary Road King, but I was at the dealers customer event and the sales guy is making all kinds of offers, so I said even on an Anniversary model and he said let me go see, so he comes back and said YES
I pick it up tonight, wife is gonna kill me but she's the one that said she loves the colors!

To refresh your memories, I have been off motorcycles for thirty years, got my license 2 yrs ago and got a DRZ400, use it as a toad on the RV, been renting every type of Harley every few months and ended up loving the Road King, it was a tough choice between the standard & the classic.

The dealer had to trade for it from another dealer.
Pics to follow!
Oh, it's 1082 of 1750.

Wife was cool, bought her dinner!
Love the color, part of the reason we got this RK.

What kind of deal were you able to get the 110th RK? I've been looking at them at 2 different dealers. My local dealer wants MSRP+$380 Freight+$1,220 Prep. A dealer 200 miles away that I've dealt with before will sell one to me for MSRP. No freight or prep.

Dealers are marking the Anniversary's up through Freight and Prep charges. For mine I paid MSRP, no prep, Fright of $150.00. In the deal I also got 2 helmets and a few other free accessories.
