I'll play the "voice of reason" here  (well ... as much as I can    ).

It certainly IS a good deal, but even the GREATEST deal doesn't mean it will fit into a person's financial plan or goals. Sounds like your present bike is paid for, and that makes your bike a VERY good bike indeed! (lol)

I mean ... if I got offered a new Bugatti Veyron 16.4 for $650K that is certainly a SMOKIN' deal (they are upwards of $1.5M list).
Doesn't mean it would make sense for me (financially) to get it.

If the monthly payment of the new SESG doesn't hamper anything financially then I would already have done the deal!!!

Just sayin' ....

Wine her and dine her, then take her to pick out the new kitchen. Whatever it takes to get the deal done.

If the CVO Street Glide was available in 2009 would you have bought it? If you would have then look at it this way, you were given a 09 Street Glide to ride for a year until your CVO came in.           IMHO I would go sign the papers for the 2010       

[Wanna ride]

YOU'RE MAKING US CRAZY! GO BUY THIS BIKE AND POST PICTURES, SOON!

Yes I most likely would have bought a CVO S/G if it were available in 2009.

I took the wife (and my two little girls) out to dinner Saturday night. During dinner I asked her if she liked the picture I sent her of the CVO S/G. Her response was “don’t tell me you plan on buying it!” Though it’s never a pleasurable experience, at least she knows my intentions. Though my enthusiasm is temporarily clouded from the verbal bashing I took, I still feel committed to getting the bike. With the worse behind me (I think), I can focus now on the things I need to do to prepare for the trade, such as removing my Vance & Hines Slip-On’s and a few little goodies.

You can always tell her to buy it for you, if she doesn't like the idea of you buying it.

I like the way you think... just don't know if I could live through it.

I've done everything I can do at this time. Everyone who's in the need to know is informed, including the General Manager and Finance Dpt.  I'll be in touch with my sales guy and he’s going to call me before the bike actually arrives. The bottom line is that I have been told I have first grabs, but when the call comes I have to get my buns down there and put ink to paper. They haven’t asked for a deposit because I’ve been told a deposit is not binding anyway. They also know this will be my 3rd bike from them in roughly 3 years. I guess I’ve earned my place in line.

[DICKW]

Sounds good, I don't think you'll be dissappointed.

Congrats in advance.

This makes me laugh because I did exactly that once already and it was worse than the time I brought home a bike without telling her about it first. Ya I had a 2002 Suzuki SVS650. I bought it because I wanted to see what the Sport Bike thing was all about. When I reached the point of trying to push the bike further than it was designed for, I knew it was time to step up a few notches. I bought a blue Yamaha R-1, same color as the Suzuki. Thought she wouldn’t notice the difference. It took a week but she eventually caught on. I couldn’t possibly attempt that again. Besides even she would see the difference between my current 09 S/G and the new one. The only approach I had was to tell her in advance what I WAS GOING TO DO. This may not be the best approach and I don’t advise it, but with my little lady regardless of how I would approach her, if it had anything to do with motorcycles the end result would be the same anyway.
Some times you just have to run through the fire to get to the other side!
