Dont worry too much about the dealer if you have a bunch of options. Just get a quote in writing and start shopping it around. Competition drives down price.

Good info I never knew I could get a written quote, but once I found a second dealer to consider I was definitely going to compare them.

Personally I like to hear the full fidelity of the music I am listening to. Not just a bunch of noise competing with road, engine and exhaust noise.
And unless you are wearing stereo earbuds you really can't hear the music like I like to listen to it.
This is me. I almost bought a Street Glide. But the stock stereo at Interstate speeds sound like crap. And I've been on a couple of SG's & rented an Ultra. All the same. I have not missed having a radio & love the purr of my Road King. Like another said here, it would come in handy when cleaning the bike or on the beach blvd.

Hmmm. Once I added an amp and rear speaker pods I can hear the stereo PERFECTLY @ 70 mph. Not as clear as my home or hardtop car system but as good as my ragtop. After adding Sirius Sat. I can't imagine riding any distance without a stereo on my scoot
