Well, I just put a deposit on a Gold/Green 2013 FLTRXSE2.  Supposed to be delivered to the dealership on 9/19. I hope I like the color combination when I see it in person-if not I'll pass.

Stopped the dealer to see what they had coming in.  They have a Gold/Green coming in mid to late September.  Are asking $1500 over MSRP, what kind of offers are other people getting on the 2013 FLTRXSE2?

I personally would never pay over MSRP.  There are many, many dealers who sell these bikes at MSRP.  Have you checked other dealers within a 200 mile radius?  I'd drive 200 miles for $1500 plus tax.  In fact, I did...in 2006 to get my SEUC.  Local dealer wanted 2K over.  More recently, they are now at MSRP.

If the dealer who quoted you that price is the only game around, then that's a different matter...

Tell him you'll pay that if he'll throw in the 5 addtional year (total 7 years) Extended Service Plan with Tire and Wheel Coverage.  That wouldn't be a bad deal...

MSRP with no freight and prep and a 15 percent discount on parts and labor. The dealership is a 60 mile ride from my house but I'm happy to do it.

Somebody will be buying a VERY LOW mileage roadking in a few months ! You should have seen my happy dance as my roadking went down the road a couple of years ago ! Once you go shark nothing else has spark...

I sure hope you are wrong, and think you are.

The Road Glide is my favorite Harley, and I am keeping my Skunk.

I almost went with the anniversary color CVO road glide, but decided I did not need a 12 and 13 of basically the same bike.

The Anniversary will be a keeper like my 03 Fatboy

Those black LED's look amazing... crap

Yup...available in October...might be a good "Christmas" present...I'll put the "bug" in my wife's ear starting now!

I know you like your skunk and with reason, that pearl white finish with the ghost flames and...well, it is a great looking bike for sure.  But passing up on an Anniversay RGC?  I think that is the one thing you will regret down the road... here is an opportunity to have three keepers.

I hope I'm wrong for you too but, in my case it was the single worst decision of my life. It handled so poorly I almost wrecked it more times than I could count. Since I traded it somebody has bought and traded it twice in the last year and it's on the dealer's floor now with brand new front roadglide wheel, scratches everywhere, it's been in a ditch for sure....

Strange.  They sit on the same frame, they should handle real close to the same.  I know you will fell buffeting on the handle bars when you pass an 18 wheeler like you do on a Street Glide.  I do not figure it will handle worse than my wifes Street glide.  It handles very well, just air management is better on the Road Glide.

Do not get my wrong, I love my Skunk and am keeping it for a while.

I have ridden kings before, and that is what got me interested in a touring bike to begin with.

I may, however I can not do two new bikes this year.  So I could not see having two CVO road glides a year apart, so the King is what I got.

It does make sense, the object is to have a different experience with each ride. There is no right or wrong, no matter it's always right...

Holy crap...$700 for headlights?  I don't think so.!!!

With 20% discount it is less. 

The black and chrome look killer on the Road glide, I think they will look fantastic on the Skunk.
