Default Help! Which Road Glide should I buy?

I have until friday to make my mind up on two different road glides. Each one is at a different dealership. Which one would you buy?

2013 Denim Black, stock, 6000 kms - $25,500
2013 Sedona Orange, stage 4!, 2000 kms - $30,000 (was 34 until I told them about the other one)

Bikes are a little more pricey up here in Canada!

In 13 the orange roadglides were " candy orange "
I believe Sedona orange was for 2011-12 range .


Anyways , I like black on a road glide

Personally, I wouldn't go with the Stage 4 because since you're buying it used, you want to ensure that everything was done right. Personally, I never buy any vehicle that's been heavily modded. But that's just me.

Easy, offer the same price for the Candy Orange bike as the Denim. If they balk and start telling you about the stage 4 just ask them how much over stock they gave the previous owner over stock value on his trade, when they start to answer, interrupt him and say "That was a rhetorical question, I know you didn't give him any extra and I am not sure I want a modified engine anyways" The power in any relationship or negotiation lies with the party that is willing to walk away.

Both bikes are demo bikes. The orange one was the sales manager's bike and the stage 4 is under full warranty.
