10% price increase on harleys
all harleys have went up by 10% in the uk. a crossbones stock is now £14000 is this the same in the states? or anywere else?
i find it hard the believe that in this economy they would increase the prices of an already very expensive luxury (for most people). I like all you guys love my bike but if it came to a choice of feeding the wife and kids or the bike then adios will drainers hello new life in thailand LOL

that pound, euro, dollar thing has been going on for years i loved getting my bits from the states when the pound was worth 2 dollars felt like i had found a really cheap harley shop and i couldnt get enough but the good times are gone for the moment and putting up prices when everybody else is lowering theres is financial suicide IMHO

If the sales drop we will be able to get discounts when buying new if you use your hand and pick the right time to haggle .

R.I.P. BROTHER
This must be the official "Euro Dude" price thread...
Chit I dunno even know what the exchange rate is!!
I do know this though... We had a member post that he bought hisself a new Crossbones for 16K out the door last week or so.
Hows that equate to Y'all money?
My guess is when you roll down the street on a Harley over there folks must be very interested? Here it seems as if you cant roll down the street without having to return a low 2 fingered wave at 12 other Harleys, 19 Metric cruisers and sport bikes, 4 guys on Mopeds, 3 old folks on scooters and a kid sitting in the back of Mummies SUV!!

yeh im happy also that my bike will hold its value alittle better but the stealers in scotland will give you freebies but wont lower the bike price they will quote half stage one or around £700 worth of extras but get the face value of the bike.
$16000 is currently £10500 which is way less than £14000 that the stealers want in the uk.
