The bike looks fantastic Motorman. Well done. I remember vividly the days of Harley getting thousands over MSRP. Corporate Harley has been in the tank for 5-6 years or more and not getting better. From over production combined with low demand. Dealerships in North Texas are keeping prices at MSRP. While Mellenials are not buying bikes like the industry would liked to see, tthat won’t stop me from enjoying my life. Knowing all this can be a powerful negotiating tool. If you have your facts together and take your time doing your due diligence you can leverage a pretty sweet deal. Ride safe and ride often. Looking great out there Motoman. Thanks for another good post.

Looks great Jerry but let me ask, could you have matched the paint by ordering from HD? Do they make paint for this purpose?
@motorman8575 жыл бұрын
I don't know if Harley makes their paint in rattle cans. The thing with a perfect match is there are two colors. A base, and then a mid coat. The base is darker than what you see on the bike. The mid coat is to lighten up the base coat. And lightening it up just right, is the hard part.
