Default Possible new bike

Stopped at me local dealer today and looked at a 2012 Ultra Classic. White Hot Pearl. With trading in my 08 Road King,It was 10,000 plus tax out the door, he was also throwing ing the first service and a five year warranty, I am really considering it since I don't owe anything on my 08. Seems like a good deal. What do you all think?

If you are getting about 12K for an 2008 trade, I think you are doing pretty good. I would try to get any mods included or discounted.

Shop Around!
Before you make the deal go to a couple of other dealers in your area.
Tell them that you are going to buy a (whatever you decide). Tell them you don't care who you buy from, as long as the Price is Right! (Your trade and the deal is the better or the same)Then you could go back to the original dealer and tell them I am getting (ie) $14000 for my HD and everything else is the same. Then if they don't want to deal buy it from the other dealer...
Good luck!

Sounds like a good deal.

You can get caught up in looking up blue book, trying to sell the 08 yourself and other avenues to get what appears to be the best deal. It boils down to whether it feels good to you and if you are happy with it.

When you're riding the Ultra home, the deal won't be as important as the smile on your face.
