Anniversary bikes have becometooubiquitous. Today,theonly Harley I'm interested inisa '77 XLCR (cafe racer). I'm supposed to go see one in Indiana this weekend.

 

Dealership made me a good deal after my 2001 95ci ultra rebuilt eng. went south after 8000 miles and $2400 later....First new anything I've ever owned,,+WARRANTY!!!!

 

I would agree with you but, tshirt, jackets, hats, bags, coffee cups, chrome, ...........

 

Anniversary models are a dime a dozen and will be for years to come. It's not like they made limited numbers of them - they made as many as they could sell. I doubt any of us will be alive to see the value of a 100th anniversary model rise above a bike produced in the 99th or 101st year of Harleys history - if the value rises at all.

 

Awesome, dude. Good luck, dawg.

 

I think slow sales on this year's anniversary bikes are going to be a lesson to Harley. They're now offering 1.05% financing to get rid of them. Every five years is overkill and choosing the duracell color scheme (as the only choice) was a mistake. It's a "love it or hate it" color and they're not moving like they hoped. One dealer in northern Pa. must have thought they were going to fly off the floor because his showroom was packed full of them. This was in late October so his gamble wasn't paying off. Seeing every model in one spot like that turned us against the color.
