Yea, it is her first bike.  She learned to ride in March of 07 and we got the bike new April 14th 07.  Funny when she got it she said she would still want to be a BSR some of the time, and would not ride every time I did.  Well that sure has not been the case.  She rides every time I ride.  She has been a BSR twice since getting the bike, once in Pannama City cause she wanted a drink with dinner, and once when we dropped her bike off for the 20K service.

Putting that kind of miles on a bike a year she really needs something with more comfort.

Last summer twice she rode up to Roanoke VA to visit our daughter, alone.  It is 309 miles one way.  She also rides to work if the weather is nice.

  I'm impressed!  ;)  She's deserving of a more comfortable ride.  Let us see it when it comes home.  :2vrolijk_21:  har!  spyder

The fine print is now clearer. To be eligible the Sportster must be "title in hand" to teh owner as of 12/25.

How many first time owners of Sportsters did not finance their bike?

Seems like a BS thing on the factories part.

You do not have to have clear title, nor do you have to be original owner; however the motorcycle does need to be titled/registered to you as of December 25th.  Some people are buying used/qualifying sportsters at something far less than original msrp for the sole purpose of then trading them in and getting full msrp.  That's not the purpose of this offer and, right or wrong, harley is attempting to close that loophole.
It was also mentioned that you need to buy a bike currently in dealer's stock.  That is a call made by the dealer, not harley.

I wish the members of one of the HOG chapters we belong to would read this thread. 
Yes a female can not only ride a motorcycle, they can keep up with the big boys.  This young lady has taken the mantra Ride and Have Fun to a whole new level. 
Can't wait to see what she gets as her next bike.

Surely you've set the bar in those chapters and put to rest any preconceived notions in that area Candy.  Or have you been hiding your odometer from them?   :nixweiss: har!  spyder

My wife won the month miliage twice in 08 with our hog chapter.  She also was the top female for the yearly miliage, and was number 3 overall miliage for the year in our chapter. :apple:.

Our January chapter meeting only three poeple rode, one who lives 8 miles away a guy, a lady who live 15 miles a way and my wife, 62 miles away and it was 12 degrees out :o  I am glad I was off shore at work, even I do not like to ride that cold.

She is really wanting the Herratage.

I am really hoping it works out I can afford two new bikes in Feb.

She deserves a new bike and a much more comfortable one than that 883L

I hate to admit it but she puts more miles a year on a bike than I do.  A lot of it has to do with the fact I work off shore, so I am gone two weeks then home and off for two weeks each month.

Sounds to me that it is a done deal then.  Just need to pick out a color and get-r-done!

As soon as the financing is approved on the SERG I have had a deposit on since Aug, we will run the application for her Heritage.  Should be no problem as I am going with 12K down on the SERG and we get MSRP for her 883 in trade.

She wants the turquoise and antuiqe white

I got an email from HD yesterday about this trade-in, here is the fine print:



Purchasers of new MY 2008 or 2009 Sportsters 883 or 1200:

    * The consumer ("purchaser") must purchase a new previously untitled MY 2008 or 2009 Sportster 883 or 1200, excluding XR1200, ("qualifying new motorcycle") between December 26, 2008 and March 31, 2009 ("offer period").
    * The purchaser who purchases a qualifying new motorcycle during the offer period has the option to trade in the qualifying new motorcycle at its original MSRP value towards the purchase of a Harley Big Twin motorcycle. Only one claim per VIN is eligible & participant must be the original owner of that vehicle.
    * The trade-in must occur no later than one year after the date of purchase of the qualifying new motorcycle as reflected in the official purchase contract.

Well the wife did a 35 mile test ride yesterday on the FLSTC Heritage.  She really like the bike.

I talked with my Credit union yesterday, and the wrote me a loan for the SERG and it is good for 60 days at that interest rate 6.5%.

As soon as they approved that loan, I submited the loan for the Heritage.  Looks like she to will be getting a new bike this year.  Going to the dealer to finish up the deal on hers first thing this morning.

What shocked me is even with full MSRP being given for her bike they are dealing good on the heritage.

I post more about the deal after we finialize today.

Well it is a done deal, we pick up the wifes new bike next week end.  They are adding all the accessories now.

They gave us 7250 for her 883L, which was MSRP in 2007 and she has just over 22K miles on the bike.

The FLSTC heritage is Turquoise and antique white, has the up graded smooth lace wheels and white walls.  It also has the smart security system.  MSRP was just over 20650 with prep and freight.

We are having them add the mustash engine guard, saddle bag guard, quick detach for the back rest, sport luggage rack, siren for the security system, windsheild bag and the red rear turn and running lights.

With the above trade and everything added to the bike I am getting it out the door for 14200, thats tax, tags and all. 

I figure it is a good deal, as I am getting the bike for more than 1K off MSRP, especially when you figure tax was over 1200 dollars.

The wife sure is anxious for next week end.

Here are a few pictures of the wifes new Heritage. 


Here she is at delivery below



Below is the bike just out the door from the dealer


She just loves the bike, we rode 59 miles over to the dealer to do the trade, it was 28 degrees out.  In the low 40's on the way home.  Then we rode again Sunday in the 50's.  She has 250 mile on the new bike already and just loves it.

Well the Sportster deal is on.
Our son traded in his 6 month old Sportster.

He got Full MSRP which was about 1100 over what he paid for the bike.
The dealer had $1500 off on in stock bikes, sales tax advantage on trades.

Got himself a 2009 Road King.
Now his brother is jealous  ;D
