I would have patiently waited knowing, I could flip it for an instant profit! Back then I was driving an 83 Camaro that cost me $500 and I had to use a set of vice grips to shift gears with. So that was far from an option in my life plus I was putting myself through college on the what the GI Bill didn't pay.

I have a copy of the email from the factory to the owner with a ship date of 6/28.

I asked for ships times from others that have ordered or if it was delayed?

What seat is that?

Ok, it ships from the factory on the 28th. It now goes to a shipping warehouse where it sits with others till they have full load for the trailers designation and it may be making stops at a couple dealers along the way.

No idea, It just shows order #, ready for factory release, and ship date on 6/28. It was built 6/13.

I waited 2 years for a 1998 FLHT. A positive was that I bought some Harley stock while waiting for my bike, I doubled my money when I sold it after bike came in.
