Just returned from the dealer, I am halfway from being able to pay cash for a new Fatboy. The weather has been perfect for riding and I could not stand it any longer. So yesterday I rented a Heritage(closest they had to a Fatboy), I put about 200 miles on it, and enjoyed every minute of it. The part that sucked is having to return the bike.[:@]

 

YEa, tell me about it! I rented a bike down in Corpus one time and enjoyed the hell out of it! And I drove past the dealer 3 times cussing cause I had to bring it back!!

 

It beats sitting on the porch reading a bike mag... or posting on HDF...

 

Come for a holiday to the UK and test ride your prospective bike for free.
My dealer bent over backwards to provide me with many different models to try and help me formulate a decision, result? I bought my bike from him. Cant see why they dont do that in the USA.

Now that is just plain torture if you ask me !!!

Why would ya go and do a thing like that ??

 

Go to a harley dealer and get what you want now ,,,,enjoy the riding season!! Why wait when you could have it NOW??

 

That's because in the USA they are called Stealer's more often then they are called Dealers.

 

Rentals over the years have sold more bikes to me than I care to admit... including the Heritage.

 

I heard that. But hey, you're still halfway to your cash goal for that Fat Boy. Hang in there!

 

My local pub was holding a poker run and I didn't have a bike at the time so I decided I wound rent one for the occasion. Well to make a long story short, I ended up walking out with a new Deuce. That was the easy part!! The hard part was telling my wife what I had done!! Remember "Never ask for permission only ask for forgivness
