still got plenty, but he sells a ton of bikes.....never seems to be a problem selling all they can get........keeps me amazed.   Sounds like a good plan getting Beagle to bop on over and post what's shown at the dealer show.  Exactly when do you go under the knife?   [smiley=nixweiss.gif]  We'll be waiting to hear on the new bikes and the new knee.  ;) har!  spyder

The dealers here (two of them) are getting sparse, particularly the touring models.  Only saw a handful on the floor Saturday, and they are REALLY pushing the Sportsters, with ads on the local radio, etc.  PARTICULARLY the Sportster.  They've sold quite a few bikes in the past couple of weeks..they had 8 or 10 VRODS left though, including an SE model in Red that I lusted after pretty bad Saturday...but, there ain't no way right now.  I'll bet they didn't have a half dozen Ultras left though, so I firmly believe in the 95 inch rumor about that one.  Makes sense, cause everyone around here gets the kit on them anyway, sooner or later.

I've never bought a bike at year's end. Do they discount them at all like the car dealers do to clear the lots for the new model year ?
They did that in the 70's and early 80's.......but, not as of late.  I figure what goes around, comes around....if you hang around.  [smiley=hanged.gif] har!  spyder

I love this line " what goes around, comes around....if you hang around."

On Saturday we noticed the same empty sales floor syndrome at our local dealer.

Sportsters and a couple of Deluxe, one SEVRod!

The local dealer did have a couple of the bikes "marked down"...being mindful of the fact that this is the same dealer I would not buy from because they wanted 3 to 4 K OVER MSRP.  I did notice that they had a couple of them marked below MSRP, but not by much.  About the only time you can get them to knock any off around here is Janurary and February...but the SE's, forget about it!!

Hey Mrs We

 That's one hot Trike and you look good on it. Can we assume there's an addition the family in the future ?

Lots of 2006' model's, not FL CVO's, but quite a few VROD SE's, sitting in at least 3 of the local dealerships here. Maybe they'll transfer them out or sell off at a loss (YEAH RIGHT!) ? I suspect they'll be some delays in deliveries to let the dealers decide what to do with the left-overs and of course all the SE performance items that will be going away. Sad situation.

No, B...no snow, except on rare occasions, but it usually rains a lot and is about 40 degrees...not all the time, but those are our two worst months weather/temperature-wise.  It's not like that every day, but can be like that for a few days in a row.

They were offering me a "deal" back in Feb on a Glide, but then I saw the SE...the rest is history....

Once March hits though, forget about any "deals" around here.
