Default Street Glide price advice

A dealer is selling a black used 2011 Street Glide bone stock w 103 power pak 700 miles for $19,500. I would like the 12 in Big Blue but thats another 2k. Just wondering if this is a good deal or should I just dive in to a new 2012 Thanks

I have to agree with the others. If you are second guessing the color, aow long till you trade it in, possibly for less than it's worth, to get what you really want?

Not much of a mark down for used. Go with what you want.

I just went through this a couple months ago. Although the 2011 in vivid black didn't have any miles on it. I decided to go with the black '11 for $20k. Like you said, it was a couple thousand cheaper. That was the worse decision I have made in a long time. Everyday that I clean the black SG, I kick myself in the ****. You can see every tiny swirl or scratch in the paint, No matter how insignificant. You can see every speck of dust as well. I wish I had paid the extra dough to have that blue beauty instead. My two cents: forget the black and go with the blue.

Get the color you want. I went for a bargain priced bike and ended up trading a year later for the color I really wanted and losing $$.

Not a very good deal for a year old bike with 700 miles. I bought a 2012 last week brand new for 19,600. Get whatever you want. You won't be happy with anything else!

I bought a leftover RGU in black and I hate that decision every day. I will never buy a black vehicle again. When the wind blows it gets swirl marks in the paint
