depends on your dealer I paid 22k for my RGU 7 months ago and got 21K for it in trade plus was refunded my money I paid for gap and the money I paid for my ESP warranty and that money went right to the down payment column

I was at a dealership in Little Rock today and two of the sales reps told me the story of a gentleman who purchased a 2013 Street Glide 3 months ago and traded it in last week on the new 2014 Street Glide (he only had 113 miles on the 2013 FLHX). I actually saw his old bike and they had a price of $19,600 on the 2013.
Someone who only rides 113 miles in three months should probably just stick with what they have. I test drove the Street Glide Special and I still did find that much special over the 2013 bikes. The new seat alone made the ride very uncomfortable.

Not knowing the buyer's story/history on 2013 and 2014 upgrade - can't really comment. Look at it this way, see if the dealer will offer-up the owner's name and call them when 2015's hit the floor next year - might be a great way for you to move into a "2014 garage queen."

As to the OP and the 113 mile 2013. There is some one out there that is going to LOVE finding that beauty in the showroom at a huge discount. Hell it is still under warranty.

I'll second that. I stepped away from all the forums for about 2.5 years. Got real tired of all the bad-***, know it all bikers and all of their negativity and smart-*** comments. Many are just barley old enough to drink legally but they got life and motorcycles all figured out already. Just recently returned a few months ago to the boards and getting tired of it already. Some people buy a H-D and then start passing judgement on others. It makes them a bad-*** don't you know !!

Unless I read it wrong, silverbullit IS the man who traded in the 2013 for the 2014 in Little Rock. Personally, I was thrilled to see him post and say that was him. I'm glad to see Silver, rather tactfully I might add, call someone out for their snarky post in here...
