Moving Up

"They had about 10 streets at the dealer and he said he couldn't give them away."

What is that going to do to your trade-in value? Would you be willing to share what you are getting for your trade? I'm curious in case I can't get the lag and leap issue resolved.

I will find out this evening when I go back to the dealership, they had to wait for Harley to approve me for financing. I'm hoping it won't be less than 6500

I posted this comment under another thread.


"After owning/riding a Soft Tail for 12 years, with its 21st Century counterbalanced engine, I would recommend bypassing anything rubber mounted, alone, especially without a 6th speed and a large bore engine. I ride a Street now because of the need for a more nimble and lighter ride due to lower extremity issues. My dealer has a plethora of pre-owned "Sportys", for sale, from those who traded-up."


While "Sportys" are cool looking, if you plan to go two-up for any distance please consider something bigger and more accommodating for such a use lest you find yourself, again, wanting to trade-up.


RIDE SAFE!

Yeah that is why I am going with the Street Bob, its perfectly sized for comfortable cruising and long hauls.

Street Bob-cool! My previous comment was meant for a different situation that I saw elsewhere.








ENJOY YOUR RIDE!

I'm also curious what they would offer you in value.

I was offered $6000 for a trade in on my bike. Im going to take it, they are selling used street 750's for $6800. I'm going to the dealer to sign all the papers and get my new street bob

Congrats. Have fun and ride safe!

How many miles are on your Street? Glad you got a fair price. Enjoy your new ride.

I got 8K, with 3200 miles on the 750. The dealer was generous due to the inability to resolve the lag and leap issue. I am now riding a 2015 Sportster Custom. V&H Short Shots, filter and tune to be done this weekend.

Awesome! Sounds like a great dealership.
