Hi Folks... I just wanted to get your opinion about the price for my bike. I am buying a 2010 night rod special w/ abs. Dealer wanted 19000 OTD for it. Considering that 2011s are almost out, I convinced him to give it to me for 17800 out the door. Is that a lot? What are your thoughts?

Thanks for any info!!

 

I think it depends on your financial situation, being a poor boy, to me it sounds like alot. If you're happy with the deal and its what you want, then all is good. No matter what, a week after you get it, you'll find it cheaper somewhere else, murphy's law.

 

It is a great deal if:
you called 10 other dealers, told them which model you want, told them which offer you had and they said they couldn't do better for you.
How far can you drive to save $1000? $2000? Up to you.

 

They start at $16,700 so I guess it depends on your sales tax, dealer set-up and delivery and doc fees. Our tax here in CA is almost 10% so that would add about $1600 to the cost of the bike.

 

No matter what you buy, like 1skrewsloose said, in a week you'll find a better deal.

Is $17,800 a lot. Yes it is!!!
Is it too much? Not if you want it!!!

 

TO MUCH!!! here is a example of resale on a V rod.

look for a low mile used one, they are great bikes but dont hold their value.

 

Couldnt have said it better myself......SHOP AROUND!....it WILL save you $1,000+

 

A bud at work is trying to sell an 02 vrod, he's down to 5500 on it. Still won"t sell. Cash is tight.!!
If you want a vrod, pm me, this guy has got caught up in balloon payments and lookng for a way out!

 

go for it...it aint like a car where they are gonna take 3/5k off the top. its a harley, looks like your already saving some $. dealers in my area are done reducing prices significantly. sales are up.
