My misses loves hers, no complaints at all.  IMO Harley hit a home run on this one.

KBB showed trade-in of $21K.... the CVO anni road king is $29,999?...


Sure.. the dealer will take yours in on trade.. and mark it up to put out on the floor to resell....


Make your best deal and see what they offer you...

I'd offer $7K Out the door.... (But thats my cheap azz)

I'm just trying to say the trade sounds like a great deal at face value but you should think hard about the comfort levels of each bike. In '07 I traded an e classic for a Rk thinking I wanted more choices for bar hopping and could still tour by changing seats etc.

For me, it was a horrible idea, I spent thousands of dollars to make the RK as comfortable as the Classic and it never did "make the grade". Went back in '11 with a ruse. Whoever said less is more was a dumbazz.

[ultrarider123]

If you really want the new anniversary RK and based on what your '09 is really worth, have you considered purchasing the new RK straight out and then selling your UC?  You might lose a bit on the purchase outright vs. trade in on taxes (Tennessee only requires sales tax on the difference in a trade...not sure about everywhere else) but more than make up for it on a better return on investment for your SEUC.  If it's an affordable option, might be the way to go...

I'm not sure why the HD Dealers are dealing as much as they are but I like it.

It is because they have a "bucket load" of air cooled engines including the "hot" 110's in inventory to unload this year before the water/oil cooled engines appear in 2014!!!

....and?

I couldn't give up an ultra for a road king.  There would be too much I would be giving up.   I can't see doing it. I always liked all the 09s too.   I wouldn't do it.      Seems like for 8k you are giving up a lot.  What are you really getting besides a new bike?

[2k]

Well, Well. 3 days into my 2 week(at least) wait, got a call from X-roads HD and the Anni SERK is in??? Come up today and make the deal. Sounds fishy to me, I think he saw the look on my face and went out to another dealer and got the scoot for a "Sure Sale" The MoCo might keep alot of secrets from the dealers......but ship dates on inventory can't be on of them. I'm really starting to think twice now

[red ben59]

Oh Yea, they know the ship dates. Within a few weeks of shipment. They gave me a ship date for my 09 then when it was time to deliver they backed up the date three weeks. Then a Couple days later after my bubble was busted the dealer called and said it's here ( W T F ) anyway, they get dates. Just the MOCO don't aways deliver what's promised.

Well the quest is now offically over. Couldn't get it off my mind so I leathered up (49 d) and headed for the mtns. I get up there and as I drinkin the 1st cup of coffee, they are all over my scoot. Piddle around on my 3rd cup as the saleman sits behind his desk looking up now and again to ask BSQ like "Do you still have the stock tailight?" When he hands me a folded piece of paper, which I unfold to reveil $14,563.57 All I can say is "Why the different $$$$" He gives a BSA "well you front fairing has a scratch and the boss won't let us paint a CVO and it will take 8 wks to get a new one" My only answer to him is well thats about $800.00 of it how bout the other $6,000. Of course I said this while walking out the door. Another dream squashed by the MoCo. Would have been a weak trade at best. The SERK had a nice set of speakers(4) but you had to provide your own I-Pod. Wait.......my '09 has AM/FM, Weather, CB, Sirus. MP3, I-Pod and Intercom.......yep thats a trade up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Cvostu]

Good job,,, I'm glad you're sticking with your ultra.   You know it had to be a scam to get you back in there and all excited for a new ride.  Glad you held off.  You have more that that bike would ever have anyway.

They're full of doo-doo.... you know full well they will have someone local touch up the fairing and mark it upupupupupup!

I think the RK would be a nice "in addition to" kind of bike... but never replacing an ultra.
