I was hoping ya'll could give me a little advice. I purchased a new 13 fatboy lo about a month ago, but have always truly wanted a street glide. I was wondering what the opinions were on trading my new bike on a used street glide? I really like the new ones, but they seem a little out of reach price wise but have found some used 06-10 with low miles. Do you think that would be a bad move?

 

You're gonna take a pretty big financial hit

 

I think you would be disappointed at what a dealer is willing to do on trade-in. You could go talk to one and see but may be better off trying to sell yours and then buy a nice used SG. I really like the SG and think you would too. Good luck

 

If you're gonna do it, stay 2010. Or newer...and talk to your dealer, if you have a good one they can work with you to minimize the hit you'll take.

If not, sell it yourself and go buy what you want!

 

Thanks all. I shoulda followed my heart when I got my FB but live and learn. I'll be on the lookout for a good deal. Luckily I'm blessed to have an understanding wife!

 

Well I pick up my "new to me" street glide on Saturday. I found an 08 (I know shoulda went 09 or newer) with low miles at a price I couldn't pass up. I'm getting alot more for my bike than I expected (shot out to hannums harley in media pa!). I'm happy to finally be getting the bike I shoulda got to begin with.

 

don't worry about not getting a 09 or newer , if you don't ride one you won't know the difference , love my 07 , enjoy your new [ to you ] bike

 

Congrats!! We all make mistakes, just glad to hear it wasn't too costly of a mistake. Enjoy the new scoot!!!

 

Glad your happy with the out come, be sure to post up some pictures and Safe Journeys.

 

Thanks all. I'm glad I'm not taking too bad of a hit. I'm definitely looking forward to the comfort and especially the radio!
