That lever on the bags really is a flush lever. Kinda surprised by that- the mechanism worked as advertised. The bags had a rounder look - like the old ones after being pressurized to 30 psi.
They're selling because of the "I gotta have the newest one" craze. We can debate the changes in drivetrain, styling, etc. all day long and get nowhere. Some people just have to have the latest. Anyone remember the craze when the Chrysler PT Cruisers first came out?? I rest my case.....
Hey Dulley, If you don't mind saying, which dealership are you referring to?
I've been thinking about another bike for awhile, to buy, but not trade the sporty. I'm looking at the positives vs negatives of the Road King vs Switchback. Still have to rent both to get a feel for them. The SG is out of the question now, since I had a hard time getting it off the jiffy stand (I'm 5'5", but a long inseam).
I'm stationed in CA, but I'm an OH state resident. So, IF and when I do buy a bike, I'm coming back home to do so (and riding it back here). So I'm putting my feelers out to find a decent dealership. Open for comments...
Funny, I was thinking today that the local dealer is having a party next weekend to showcase the 2014's. Unless they're hiding more in the back, they only had 4 left yesterday. I'll laugh my a$$ off if they don't have any to show next weekend!

When those PT Cruisers came out people were paying premium prices, now look at what there worth.
