Best buy on bike?Ind,Ohio,Ky??
As some of you know I am buying a new bike, Ultra classic to be exact.
I am being told the the HD dealers in Kentucky work on commision, which means more money for a bike right.? and I was told the dealers in Ind doesnt get commision, but the taxes suck. and now Im being told that I should be going to Ohio for the best buy on a new bike,(no commision and lower taxes.)
My 1st question is there any truth to this? thats why Im here asking you guys, 2nd, should I call around and quote the dealers in surrounding states?? or does anyone know with past experiance where to get the best deal.
I wouldnt care to drive a half day or so to save a few dollars, I just dont want someone retiring on my purchase, & then finding out that I could of save a $grand$ by going over a state or two.
Thanks.

My son and I went to 4 dealer here in mid central Ind and we got the best deal at Indy north..bought both at same time and he gets LEO discount there. That made it hard to beat at the others...
Ind has .07% sales tax on top of that.. but not sure how it works for out of state buyers,
check with Ur state laws before buying...don't want to pay both

I think if you are from out of state you wont have to pay the taxes where you bought it but only the state you register it,the selling dealer will send the paper work to your state but I never bought a new vehicle in another state so I could be wrong but I would think you would not pay sales tax in both states.

Guess we hit the tax issue! LOL Sorry, didn't see the above before posting.
I bought at HD Plainfield, IN but I remember getting the best deal at the Vincennes HD. Used them shamelessly to get Plainfield close and since they had my black RKC in stock they got the purchase.
Get a firm out the door quote from one and most will fax you a hard quote for competition. Those that won't, probably aren't hungry anyway.

Try Mann's in Edinburgh IN. 812-526-3485 ask for Rich. I bought a few from him he did me OK. They must be competitive people come from all over and buy there.
I didn't know Vincennes had an HD dealer? Good Luck
