My wife would like to go from her '05 XL1200C to a SG. With the gas prices going nuts, and everything else going up, is any one seeing dealers coming down from the MSRP?
Don't need an '08, a new '07 would be nice.

Alot of the rest of the world also pays their workforce a lot betterthan we do. Man,if the truckers do a formal strike we will all be on our knees.I doubt if you will find a new o7 street glide. That bike sells high for the same reason that cars are having rebates 0% interest etc. Now if you want a deal, buy a dyna.Some dealers may come off MSRP BUT IF YOU WANT A STREET GLIDE you will probably have to pay the price. Of course it depends on where you live,how far you have to go and how bad a dealership has to sell a unit.

I talked to the sales manager about sales. He said they were having a record month because of gas prices. I had to pay MSRP, but they waived all other fees.

Typical HD Bagger is $20,000.
Gas is currently $3.20 a gallon (approx for regular)
$20,000/$3.20 is 6,250 gallons of gas.
Your typical car get about 25 miles per gallon
6,250 x 25 = 156,250 miles of driving for the price of one HD Bagger.
I wish people (not you wbogley) weren't so friggin ignorant to think that by buying a $20,000 motorcycle they are somehow saving money on gas.
Its just plain stupid.

i still love that argument.....But if someone is dumb enough to believe it, then all the power to the dealers. Think about it:
