I would look really close at the 14 before buying & definately ride it. There maybe a reason they are offering such a deal. The 14 SG seem to be moving with no problem at my local dealer they are above MSRP and can't keep any on the floor.This bike may have been damaged or have some issue for it to be priced like that. Even if taking care of under warrenty at later date thats steal another headache. Proceed with Caution!

Why would you even consider the 13 for those prices?

....... because it's fun !

...... but re: the OPs question ....... i'd ask'm to sweeten the deal on the interestingly colored '13 (if it wasn't a StreetGlide)
..... but for anyone else, get the brand new one, ya can never have too many vents in your fairing

Is the 14 price inclusive of prep/ set up or are there other fees he hasn't disclosed on the " new" bike? See if the 'out the door' prices match up.
There is a smart man! Make sure they wont tag you with a bunch of additional extra expenses like prep and set up. If they are truly the same price, go with the 14. - I do however really LIKE, no LOVE the chrome yellow though.

Hell even if they do add prep and freight to that price you are still getting a $22,000 bike at $20,900. That's $1200 off MSRP for a bike that most dealers are selling above MSRP or at best MSRP for them all day long.

He offered me a brand new '14 Street Glide Silver w/security, cruise, everything, but the upgraded stereo for get this... 20,900 plus tax, title. He said the '13 was a raffle bike the owner didn't want. He also said the deal was an end of the month deal on the '14. So what would you do?
Your kidding right? This is truly a no brainer the 14

Common around here to see used previous year bikes priced near or same as new models. Dealer still makes more on the new and makes there end of month numbers look better..Hense "price only good till end of month"
Even if more for 14' I'd still do it. Traded my 12'SG for a 14'.
HD saved me from having to do things I wanted for the 12' like the 19" front, CVO style fender, better tunes, much nicer wheels, better suspension.

If someone offered you a million dollars today but said if you wait until tomorrow I will give you 2 million would you question it? There is only one answer.
