I been shopping Harley 28 years and can never remember the dealer inventory being this high. I joked with the wife to not be surprise if the dealership bathrooms didn't have a Harley parked in it next visit.
For the first time ever my local dealer had NEW bikes parked outside, in a place that has only held used bikes in the past. I noticed yesterday I could not squeeze past a Fat Boy parked in the way between parts and service... These dealers need to move some bikes!
Then I noticed all the sales folks are all hanging around like a hungry vulture as I guess on all my past visits many of those same sales folks would be working a deal or something and off the sales floor.
Supply = demand , I'm no expert but sitting on this amount of inventory at the end of Summer may not be good for the company but the wife and I are in the market for a bike so I hope it will be good for us!
I just now heard on the news the feds are lowing rates, funny how all that works....

The Deals are out there now. I just saw a 2024 RG Black 117 out the door at 25,4xx. Customer sent me copy of his invoice and I thought that was a great deal Since HD shows that bike at $27,349 plus all the extras.................
