GREAT answer RJob!

I'd venture to guess dealer's cost is $27,000-$29,000 on a 2008 SEUC $35,000 motorcycle.

If I owned a Harley dealership and my salesman gave $31,000 for an 07 SEUC when I can buy a new one for $27,000-$29,000, I'd have to fire him.  Anytime I want the luxury of trading in a 1-2 year old motorcyle versus selling mine outright,  I expect to get insulted at their trade in offer.  But, that's just me, I'm just an old backwards redneck.

Don't forget that trading is not selling it to the dealer.  They can make you feel good about your trade if they are making enough on the new one.  That's usually the way it goes.  The cash price deal and price with trade in are way different.

I guess you could call them sway bars, but they're actually dampened motor mounts.  The intent is to isolate the engine vibration from the rest of the bike.  Pretty effective, but when idling, nothing stops that thumping from coming through the rest of the bike.
