New 08 SERK - Should I?
« on: October 19, 2007, 10:59:50 PM »

I have just come off an '03 Road King which was real nice. I coulda done with more power and a bit more chrome. But anyway, i just came into a little bit of money from a piece of land I just sold. I was wondering - should I get the new FLHRSE Road King??? Man, its a lot of cash, but it gives me wood just looking at the sumbitch. Should I???

My '03 RK was my 4th RK. I sold it for my SERK3. I love RK's and the SERK 3 & 4 are setup better than any RK they ever made. There are some issues with the 110" CVO's. Solve them all, and you got the perfect bike! ;)

The highlighted line above is more than enough reason to buy it.
It can be all about you and sounds like it's calling you to take it home!

Just do it!

That's exactly what happen to me. Traded in an 07 Street Glide for SERK. Never regretted it for a minute. It's not a matter of life or death, it's more important than that.

Hey-Soose (if your Texican, you'll get it!)

Man that was quick. You guys are quicker to jump on the bandwagon than the Russkies on to Iran! I guess I cant complain about a lack of enthusiasm. Thats a good thing.

I was speaking to a dealer in AZ and he told me it was gonna cost me 34 big ones. I nearly chit my pants. What is the engine friggin gold plated I said. He said better than that - it had 110 cubes. I said at that price then it must be the best goddam Harley in the world. He said I was lucky and that people in Karli-forn-ia were paying three bucks over retail. Well, they are from California, I said - they're all millionairs. He said he could give me nine grand for the RK, and I told him that wouldnt pay for the friggin air in the tires.

Im thinking about it - seriously thinking about it. I'll have to scrape together the next two paychecks. No dinners out and NO BEER for three weeks. Holy crap! I guess the liver could use the brake!  ;D

Sounds like you'll have to sell it private. They pulled that crap on me. I just sold it private instead.

And he should give you a discount cause it's got that 110" thing they try ro call an engine in it! :D

Get on the telephone and start calling other dealers, you can find a better deal...there are plenty of other dealers out there that will work with you. Good Luck!

34K is too much. Been couple on Ebay for around list - 29K   Your dealer figures someone will pay what he wants so he's holding tight.  Dealer sees Harley closing plants for a week and related issues...may feel he needs to make all the profit he can. He's wrong! Customer satisfaction will keep him open not sticking it to the customer.  Bad old days may be around the corner if Moco is not careful.

Call around, find a good dealer (yes they exist) and treat em right.
