They want about $16,500 for this bike and that's not out the door. I know it's got some nice mods on it, but damn! I'm stopping at this dealer tomorrow anyways so I'm going to see in person what a almost $17k Sportser looks like LOL!

I guess so, but still it's not worth it to me. I mean that is Softail pricing right there.

There's a sucker born every minute. I'd be willing to bet that it will sell at or around that price.

Besides fancy paint and exhaust, what does it have? Looks nice but BIG rip off if you ask me.

That is insane I mean I know the RDS exhaust is not cheap but holy crap ! that is way to high $$$$$ but like others have said it will sell because some idiot will walk into the dealer and just "HAVE TO HAVE IT" hahaha

Screw that! Tucson Harley has the 48 with the spring seat, mini apes, custom exhaust, red glitter gas tank, etc for about 12

Looks like custom paint, a gas cap, Roland/V&H exhaust, and a SE A/C, yup definitely worth $6k over the normal price for a 48 I also like how they mention a "slammed handlebar" which is the stock 48 bars, side mounted plate and "beefy" front tire, all of which are stock lol. I could do tons more than those things to my bike for that $6k overcharge
