we each have our own desires and finances.

I tend to replace stuff when I begin to loose confidence in it.

I ran my '95 to over 82K, and found myself wondering when I might have a problem that would interfere with touring plans.

I started shopping and found a few candidates, eventually scoring a great deal on an 09 FLHTC, which at that time was 6 months old.

It took a few months to get my price for the '95, but it covered more than 1/2 the cost of the 09.

my buying situation allows me to do what I want, no financing, no trade ins. But I try to be smart about my cash.

I'd never do a deal for a new color or a marginal added feature.

but that's me

When your looking to buy an Indian because you don't want to buy a brand new touring bike that is 20 years old and then the Rushmores are released two days before you place the order...
