The riders here tend to be very agressive and have stepped up my skills a notch as a result. The down side is that I attend several funerals a year here.

In Croatia because the economy is a little better you have 1 dealership in Zagreb and another about to open in Split so there are more fo them there.

My Wife is from Hungary and still has family there. We have been to the Harley dealerships both in Budapest and Debrecen. Prices there are 3Xs what they are here!

I saw a used bike in Derecen that was almost identical to my last one (2008 Ultra) and the used price was almost double what I paid new. I guess that is why there are so few of them there.

This is true. Harleys are more expensive in Europe than in the US due to shipping and customs cost. I have a friend in Holland that buys used bikes from up around Russia relatively cheap and sell them in Holland for a comfortable profit. So used bikes can be had at reasonable cost if you are in the know.

I have a good friend that is the Service manager at the Budapest dealership. I need to ride up there for a visit.
