First experience purchasing a new harley
#12
When I was first negotiating on my 2012 FXDC, the initial payment plan was $500/month with $5000 down....
It took them all day to get the payments down to $230/month and $1500 down with a $1500 trade in.
They only came up with a "good deal" after I was saying thanks but no thanks and walking out the door.
I still feel I didn't get the best deal. My first brand new vehicle purchase and it'll be my last.

I see that point but I have always bought new. Probably because I have the money to do so, but also I just like to think it is mine and was never someone else's.

I've ridden Harleys all my life. I started out riding Triumphs and I have owned a few shovelheads. Recently I decided to sell my 1994 Heritage and buy a 2013 FLHR with abs.
I found one with abs at a local dealer. When I picked up the bike we discovered it had abs and no security. I wasn't happy seeing how the two come together and I would have paid less without security. The next day I called the dealer up and they told me they ran the vin# and that it didn't come with security only abs, BULLSHIT! I called HD and to make a long story short I had to call the dealer back and show them the error of their ways. Now when they get the security system in I've got to drive all the way back there to have it installed no charge of course. And to think they're hoping for a good review from me. I think they should have known their product better. And I think they owe me maybe some in store credit for the inconvenience. Needless to say this isn't the dealer I would return to for sevice.

Anyone that has the security system and doesn't have the little card in their wallet with the override code is just rolling the dice. Someday the FOB battery will go south or you will be in a high RF interference zone, and will need the override.

financing and monthly notes are not what make a good deal. the bottom line is whats important. hell, you could have gone out to 84 months and dropped your note even more, but do you want to be paying on that bike for the next 7 years?
