Hi Guys, I recently sold my 2010 Iron to purchase a 2012 Softail Slim Denim Black with Abs. What would be a good other price for the bike is there anything I could get to sweeten the deal.

So far I was told 17,080 plus tax & reg this include the abs and security feature. I was looking to also get some V&H pipes install from the factory. I was told 15% off all accessory before delivery of bike.

Any ideas Thanks guys. btw, The bike has to be order.

 

Either visit or call dealers around your area for they best price.

It's what I did in 1986 and found the first dealer I visited beat the other 6 dealers I called in So Cal by $1500 to $3000.

Since you're looking for the best deal, you'd save even more ordering the pipes and installing them yourself.

 

About the best you can do from most dealers on a new bike is to see how much or many free oil changes or regular scheduled maintenance visits you can get from them.
If you can do much better than the list price, your one up on most of us.

 

I bought mine on Monday. Paid 15,499 for black denim and got them to throw in a HD leather illuminator 360 jacket (495 retail). Didn't get the alarm or the ABS. Basically I paid the base MSRP. I needed a jacket too so I figured I would give it a shot and they said yeah. With tax in WA is was about 17k OTD>

 

Thanks Micro, I had to put a deposit down for them to order me the bike, I'm being told end of May. :'( Hopefully I can do the same to sweeten the deal, either the first break in services or hopefully a jacket. Hopefully the will go for that.

 

I bought my dream bike (2012 Softalil Slim) in March. I put Black V&H on it and blacked out the headers and a couple of other touches- windshield included.
I just lost my job, unfortunately, and have to sell it. Give me a call if you're interested- 507-272-1698 (It has less than 300 miles on it and was just DYNO'd so it won't need the expensive 1000 mile check up.

 

I paid 17,200 out the door for mine 2012.

 

I would call John at Loess Hills Harley-Davidson!

 

$15,884 For denim black slim
$ 1,195 for abs/security
$17,079 Is the MAX I would pay out the door (setup, tax, title, licensing)

But since it is last years model I would bargain for a cheaper price and depending if its riding season or not where you live.

 

Kind of a difficult question to answer as your not always comparing like with like, you could get a 2012 or a 2013 model for quite different prices, time of year makes a big difference as dealers have targets, and they are not going to sell many bikes over xmas, so you could get a real good deal then, also the targets that dealers have, mean that they have to sell so many bikes in any given period, so they may pre register bikes to themselves, meaning that to the 'Moco' they've 'sold' them but they have them in the store, they normally go quite a bit cheaper, but officially you are the second owner, over here in the UK that might put some but not all people off.
If I was after a new bike I'd buy it Xmas or new years eve for a good deal, but failing that I would but it at the end of the month, as they get nervous towards the end of a month, that they might not have sold enough, and just when you've got a deal close to being made, tell em you want some instore credit to spend on parts.
