Haters gonna hate. You do what's best for you and leave them be. Thanks for being honest about it!
Yup and I've been getting A LOT of it lately. Oh well, no such thing as bad press. Thanks John! Oh and "thanks for your feedback" :)
@@TyFromTennessee dangit! I knew it! Ugh. And I thought we were friends... (sad face)
Ty, it works for you. I’m 100% on your side! Glad you are enjoying your ride!😊
Thank you very much! I appreciate that and yes, so far, I really love the motorcycle!
Excellent video and appreciate your transparency
Thank you sir. Much appreciated. Just keepin' it real!
🛑🛑 😀👍

Hi Jeff. Much appreciated sir. I will always be honest with my audience. I believe that is just the right thing to do. Thank you very much for watching! I appreciate your time today!
Thanks for the info and honesty.
Happy to help. I appreciate your time and thank you for watching!
TY your always honest friend ..!!! The one reason I subbed and watch you man
Thank you so much for that. It means a great deal to me. Be safe out there and thank you for supporting the channel!
Thank you for your honesty Mr. TY.
You're very welcome. Happy to help others and thank you for watching!
Ty, I just wanted to thank you for this. I had a similar dealership back home in Iowa, Loess Hills Harley-Davidson.
I figured your deal was pretty decent with your trade in of the CVO. Awesome video, highlighting a good dealership.
Just passed through after our vacation out in Clarksville and stopped out Thunderhead HD( as of Friday I think) out near pigeon forge. I almost came home with a ST.
Hi Jason. Yeah all the ST models are great man and I love my Low Rider ST. It's not going anywhere and by far my favorite H-D. Take care and thank you for watching!
Congrats on 5k Fam. 🤙🏾🙏🏾
Thanks friend! Much appreciated!!
Thank you for sharing
Of course. I appreciate your time very much!
Good info, thank you for sharing. I’m looking at a similar purchase in the not too far off future. It helps to know what to expect!
That's great and I sure hope the info helps. Best of luck to you and thank you for watching!
Great video. I can tell you that my local dealer marks up way over MSRP for the special and limited edition. Last years CVO was 10K over MSRP. I believe you.
It's nice to hear how well your Harley dealer takes care of is customers, 💪🏻
I'm lucky man. My dealership is only a few miles from my house and they are good people. Thank you for watching today!
Great info and totally understand where you are coming from.
For sure man. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing its good to know that there are some dealers not looking to take advantage of the customer.
True. When you find a good dealership stay with them. It seems like a rare thing these days. Thank you for watching!
Dude, you have the best content👊 The bike is sick😀
Thanks Dan! MUCH appreciated! Just trying to do my best on my little TH-cam channel. Thank you for supporting the channel!
Great share Fam 🤙🏾🔥
Thanks Junior! You're awesome buddy!
Hey there Ty! Thanks for sharing all the specifics on the purchase of your motorcycle. I’ll finally be able to get my bike at the ones of this month. I’ve settled on a Low Rider ST in White Sand Pearl. Like you, I don’t mind paying the freight and set up. The surcharge is what bugs me. But luckily my dealer is an MSRP shop. I’m definitely getting that maintenance plan.
Congratulations man! My LRST is my favorite motorcycle. What a great bike and thank you for watching!
The prepaid maintenance sounds like a good deal. The freight and prep seem high to me. By a lot. The bike is awesome!
Thanks Mike! I have really enjoyed the motorcycle so far and looking forward to more riding soon! Have a great day!
Solid video Ty! I look forward to visiting White Lightning HD!
Thanks Toby! Yeah man, if you're in this area stop by. It's a terrific group of people over there! Thank you for watching!
Good, informative, honest video,Ty. You did have me scratching my head with the $1850 freight cost but then i saw on the HD website that the freight and HD surcharge totaled the $1850. However, I've heard over and over again that HD reimburses the dealer for the cost of the set up (maybe it's called PDI) but your dealer charged you a considerable amount for it. Sometimes I try and negotiate that fee down but sometimes I just go with the flow with it like you seemed to have.
Hey Craig! I've heard that too a few times in the comment section today. I trust my local dealership and the staff that runs it. If I ever felt over charged I would most certainly say something. Thanks so much for your comment. I appreciate your support for the channel!
And to think Honda charges $775 for shipping of a Wing including surcharge and it's coming from the other side of the globe. No dealer prep charge to put the windshield on it either. I'd be pissed if I had to pay a prep fee equivalent of 3 or more full maintenance visits. I'm sure there was an exhorbant documentation fee as well. I paid $49.
Ty, thank you for this honest post. I wish more people would be as honest. As for the purchasing of the bike (or anything for that matter) I believe if you can afford the deal and feel comfortable with it, then it is a good deal (and this would be true in your case). I just want to touch on a few things, I just purchased a 2022 RG ST and I bought it 3 months ago, so I knew it had been on the floor for a few months giving me some negotiation power. The freight was $750 and the Surcharge was $1000. They had a $200 prep fee and $200 cal emissions fee. So was able to negotiate and eliminate the prep fee (because like mention by others I assumed they were reimburse from HD) and the $1000 Surcharge. So with that I felt comfortable with the deal. Apparently the Surcharge is something they need to show, because on my final paperwork, they showed the fee but lowered the cost of the motorcycle. And like Craig mentioned, I'm not sure why your freight fee was so high. But either way, the difference in my purchase to yours was the bike itself. I'm sure that had I purchased the 120 anniversary bike like you, I would not have been able to negotiate anything, and I would have been happy to have paid it. Great video, just my 2 cents.
I traded in a 2022 Triglide ultra for the 2023 Anniversary Triglide Ultra. I'm sure the cost to me was over $50, 000 including a 5 year extended warranty. Now with that, when i park my bike "no one" passes by with out complements on my bike. An old times at VA Hospital told me it was the most beautiful bike he ever saw. Warms my heart and i call it return on unvestment. Exactly as i felt, most beautiful bike ever. Chuck
That is awesome. I really do love this bike. It’s beautiful and so many people stop and take that second look. Thank you so very much for watching!!
Excellent!! A little different than we do here, some of that is thrown in for us here in Canada, except for the rim and tire we have to pay if we want it!
I trust our dealership been dealing with them for over 15 years now and bought many Harleys without any issues!!
Good stuff here Ty
That's fantastic. It's always good to hear when someone works with a dealership that they trust. Thank you very much for watching and have a great day!
I'm glad there are folk that can afford and enjoy these high end bike prices Never happen for me but I'm enjoying the channel
Thank you very much for watching. I appreciate your time and hope you are having a great weekend!
Thanks for sharing the information, I've bought a couple oh new Harley's and that's the first I heard that you could purchase a maintenance plan.
I sure hope this video was helpful to you Kerry! I appreciate your time today.
Your dealer sounds like mine Ty. This Heritage is my third from them in 4 years, and I trust them. I also bought the maintenance (VIP) program. Be well and be safe.
Thanks Bob! Appreciate your time sir. Have a great day!
I like videos like this because I had no idea what to expect when I went with my friend when he bought his bike. It's eye opening to pay almost 4k in fuel and labor, I thought that would have been rolled into the sticker
Thanks Chad. I appreciate your feedback very much. It's always good to do business with a dealership that you trust. Thank you for watching!
With "deals" like this I am sure your dealership loved right back. With you paying mark ups, extended warranties for oil changes and torque checks. Not to mention mystery Prep (all required prep is reimbursed by HD) and a wildly expensive freight charge. HD allows their dealerships to um, "charge", their customers whatever they can get away with. Oh well, a happy customer is all it takes regardless of how overcharged you were for your lifestyle brand.
The context of the terms you are using (expensive, overcharged, etc) are all extremely subjective. Value is different from person to person, and yes, I am a very happy customer and greatly enjoy the Harley Davidson brand.
I can’t believe you even made this video for the reasons you mentioned. There are a few good dealerships still doing business. Thanks for the video.
Happy to help Rodney. My local dealership is fantastic and I look forward to more business with them soon. Thank you for watching!
The tire & wheel package is worth its weight in gold, you only need to pickup 2 nails and you have covered the cost of your 5 year protection, I did that in 3 months, so so glad I got that coverage.
I think the exact same thing. I have it on my Low Rider ST and I have already had to use it. Worth every penny! Thank you very much for watching! I appreciate your time today!
Good information
Thank you Mike. Much appreciated sir.
Ty I love too here your content. I’m from Canada so our numbers are alittle different but I find your honesty genuine….
Thanks Peter! I appreciate that very much sir. I hope you have a great day!
WLHD will be my closest dealer. It's good to know that their reputation is solid. Thank you!
For sure! They will treat you right. Great people over there. Thank you for watching!
I’ve been in White Lightning ⚡️ Harley Davidson and saw your picture on the wall.
I know you own that dealership. 😁👍
hahaha! That would seriously crack me up if they did that. Let's see...who can I talk to over there about that.....
Nice of you to do this but I don’t think you owe anyone a explanation for what you paid that is definitely your business and no one else’s but nice of you to share. Love the bike its beautiful and enjoy.
Thanks Anthony. I agree with you. Not really anyone's business, but so many have asked I thought it would be helpful for others. Thank you very much for watching!
Thank you for sharing this information, I appreciate it. I'm always curious to know what people actually paid. It's tough to find fair prices here in CA. And before anyone says "Laidlaw's", they are over 500 miles away from me and their prices were the same as other dealers near me. They claim no markup but I've got quotes from them and they incorporate all the same fees and just call it something else, at least in my experience. I do like their TH-cam content though.
Hey there! Yeah, Laidlaw's does some really cool stuff on their channel. I enjoy watching it. Thank you very much for watching and ride safe out there! Watching you guys do lane splitting gives me great anxiety! :)
Your channel is awesome! Life is too short, ya can’t take money or your Harley with ya,, so enjoying every day is crucial, looks like you are doing a great job…
There are definitely a few “Sketchy” Harley dealers here in the Ma/Southern NH area,,, but there are a couple fair ones too,, everyone has to make their own deal, and be happy,,,
Monadnock Harley AAA+ for sure ☘️
Hey Joe! I appreciate that compliment very much! Trying to do my best and keeping it real. I'm lucky, my local dealership is fantastic. Thank you very much for watching! I appreciate your time today!
Good information lol just tells me I need to get more financially set before I get a bike off the dealership
It's not cheap, but it could have been so much more expensive. Thank you so much for your time today!
Hi Ty, just wondering if your stated freight amount included the surcharge? Thanks
Hi Frank. Yes sir, I go over the freight amount in the video and dealership fees as well. Hope you have a great day!
You do have a point all dealers are not the same. some of them will try to break it off in you. friend of mine she was looking into that new Road Glide 3-wheeler. I think the MSRP on it was 32 and she is our secretary for the whole chapter do the whole lot for the dealer .they come out at 43 right off the bat needless to say she was a little upset thanks for sharing it with us great video keep the rubber side down
Thank you sir! It's too bad to hear stories like that. Many dealerships seem to be that way. Keep your business with a good one when you find it. Thank you for watching!
Yup, it's nobody's business what you paid. It's your hard-earned money and 2...we as a society are very nosy people and we want to know. I'm glad you put out this info because I too am one of the nosy lol. great video TY
Hahahha. I totally understand. More than anything I’m hoping people will use this as an opportunity to do business with good dealerships. Thank you very much for your time!
Ty thank you for the transparency. I said no to all warranty add ONS. I do my own service on my bikes. Has not been back to the dealership since I got it in November of 21. At 16 k now no issues with my bike. I have 21 road glide limited. It cost me 32 k. I see now they want 36 for the same bike. 😮
Hey Harry! I really need to learn how to do the services on my bikes. There's lots of great how-to information out there. Thank you very much for watching!
Great info. My dealer also does MSP and none of that freight and set up cost. The posted price on the website is what you get. Makes buying that bike so much easier.
That's fantastic and good to hear you've got a dealership you can trust. Thank you very much for watching!
Jerry, which dealer do you go to? Mine is Old Glory HD in Laurel, MD
@@VVoltz EISENHAUER'S in Chesapeake City. I shopped around a lot when looking for my last motorcycle and I am so happy I landed there.
Such a good video, thank you for posting!
That’s an insanely cheap service plan. In MD, close to DC it is about $2800, unlimited miles BUT also for only up to 3 years.
That's what I've been hearing in the comments. Good to know. Thank you very much for watching!
I thought service plan is reasonable but would prefer no time expiration as everyone’s riding time can vary in different climate states and not to mention any medical situations that prevent you from riding. , such as my work injury , surgery and recovery time . I would definitely buy that service plan price for 5 yrs. Though . Thanks for sharing Ty
In the UK it's done differently, the price on the bike is inclusive of taxes, dealer charges ect. But after adding accessories onto my Indian Chieftain, I haggled on the price and got mine cheaper/ good price.
Hey Paul. That's good information to know. Thank you for that. Congratulations on your Indian Chieftain. It's a great motorcycle.
Hi Ty, I just sent you an IG request...hope you read it, and thank you for taking notice. Great posts, btw!
I appreciate the offer, but I think I'm gonna pass. Much appreciated!
you sure? would love to have a chat with you just to pick your brain 🙏🙏@@TyFromTennessee
🛑🛑 The bike cost is what you think it is worth, regardless what others may think. 💯
I appreciate your honesty, and bringing this video to the public.
Great looking bike. I’m sure when you pull into your local bike night, folks will be “jaw dropping” to how nice it really is.
Enjoy yourself, and the Ride….after all isn’t that what Life is All About. 😀💯👍
Thanks Gene. I really appreciate the kind words. Yes, life is just too short so let’s all have some fun. Thank you for watching!
Hi! TY; The only thing you may have not know that Harley-Davidson reimbursed all the dealerships on their prep fee. So they billed you f9r something they are reimbursed on. Cin-Cin and Salute. Have a bless day....
Hi Robert and I appreciate the information. Ride safe and have a great day!
TY you can say whatever you want on your channel if people dont like it they dont have to watch it keep on motoring down the road
That's what I think too. Thank you for supporting the channel and have a great day!
I was surprised when I bought my 98 electraglide that it came with all the documents of everything that had been done to it. And that was 3 years ago.
That's a really good idea. I keep all my documentation and paperwork so that I can pass it off to the next guy. Thank you for watching sir and I hope you have a great day!
If your happy that is all that matters. Good luck with the bike. Unfortunately my dealership does not have a good reputation.
Thank you. I appreciate that very much. That stinks. I'm really lucky to be able to work with my local dealership.
Dealer Prep - $1199 is huge, down here in Florida it is substantially less. Right around $599 - $699… Tire and Wheel Package is in line with here in Florida… Maintenance Plans… $1299 eh okay, what sort of savings versus walk-in prices? Most dealers are tacking on $5000 + for the 120th, heck my local dealer wouldn’t even come off of MSRP for a Road Glide ST, went to the Fort Myers Dealer and he was $2600 less, ended up buying my first American Bagger/Cruiser an Indian Challenger Dark Horse 2023, the power and torque and features were much better than even the 117 motor of the Harley. I might have bought the Harley if it wasn’t for that goofy Snorkel hanging off of the motor, that impeded my shins when trying to use the brake. Nice bike the 120th, never saw one in the Metal yet… Enjoy the bike, congrats.🎉
Thank you sir and congratulations on your Challenger. Those are great motorcycles. I appreciate your time and thank you very much for watching!
Great video. Sorry you got some hate but I paid basically the same as you and I absolutely love my Harley! It’s my 4th one if I wouldn’t pay less for the BMW I wouldn’t own one. I’m an American an I ride American 🇺🇸 love your content Brother good stuff. I watch all your content. Keep these great videos coming I know it’s a lot of work.
Thank you so very much for the kind words. Oh yes, on this video I took a beatin' for sure. hahaha. It's all good and comes with the territory, I guess. Glad to read you love your new ride. This Road Glide is fantastic and I'm so glad I bought one. Take care and thank you so very much for watching!
Beautiful bike .
Thank you so very much!!
Great Video Ty, that’s what I’m running into with 4 different dealerships here in Houston area, NOT being fair and honest, it’s scarring me away from actually buying a brand new one, (trading my RK in) they’re trying to charge me 4-7K over MSRP plus PDI, which I get & understand it cost to get the bike ready for customers, BUT, I’m in retail myself and the toys I sell can be much more expensive than these bikes but have never ever could I ask MSRP for them therefore it’s unbelievably hard for me to pay over MSRP let alone MSRP. It goes against every thing I believe in. UGH! But, thanks for sharing your thoughts and cost, Congratulations on that new bike BTW, beautiful!
Thank you very much! Yeah, I wish more dealerships were a open and honest with their customers on these type of things. Thank you very much for watching and good luck with your motorcycle shopping!!
I've owned a lot of bikes over the years but I bought only 2 at Harley dealerships. My experience was VASTLY different at each dealer.
In 206 I bought a Harley at Hannum's HD in Media Pa.
That was a class A experience. No issues.
In 2018 I bought a Harley at Maverick HD in Carrollton TX. That experience was HORRENDOUS!
High pressure and they threw in a lot of extras WITHOUT ASKING and they refused to take them off. These extras were not parts, they were extra warranties, fees, and services. I think they were trying to wear me down because they kept me there for several hours. I had to literally walk out before someone ran out to the parking lot to get me, promising to take the extras off.
Hey James. I cannot stand high pressure sales and I won't have anything to do with it. Take care and thank you very much for watching!
I have the same bike and paid 42,500. for mine out the door. 6k of it in upgrades. I bought mine In the northeast, and like it or not things are more expensive here. I didn't buy it as an "investment" I bought it to ride the rubber off it, and NEVER plan to sell it. So the pleasure I get from riding this beautiful machine will be more than I ever got from all the beers and broads I've ever known from my youth. 😉Soo did I pay too much? Maybe, maybe not.
Congratulations my friend and I hope you love the bike! I know I sure do! If you are comfortable with the cost that is all that really matters. To me, this bike is worth every penny. Thank you so much for watching!
Hi Ty, thanks for sharing. Does the bike price include taxes? Keep on ridin‘!
Nope, taxes are not included with the pricing I went over. I didn't bring it up because it's so different from state to state. Thank you for watching!
@@TyFromTennessee I ordered the 120th anniversary Street Glide Special. Here in Germany the bike costs 37695 € plus 887.25 € freight, both including taxes for a total of 38582.25 €, that is currently 42356.75 $. The price is in my opinion somewhat outrageous, but includes taxes of 6160.19 € (6762.84 $). The surcharge for the anniversary model is here in Germany 6000 € (6586.98 $) as compared to 3000 $ in the US. Well, you only live once, right?
@@Roadkingeifel That’s exactly right! Enjoy that beautiful bike!!
Ty , thanks for sharing and shouldn’t freight vary from state to state as well depending on distance from HD factory ? I’m only 100 miles from Milwaukee and would think it would be much less . It would be nice if can avoid the freight and pick up directly from factory , or might have to check out Milwaukee dealerships and see . Thanks for your transparency and enjoy that beautiful bike .
@@jaimebedolla989 Good point Jamie. I bet being close you can negotiate those fees. Thank you for watching!!
Bootleggers in Knoxville and Harley Davidson of Lynchburg Virginia are great also.
Hey Buddy! I've been to Bootleggers several times and yes, they are an excellent dealership too. Thank you very much for watching!
I was born in Lynchburg, Va and I left there when I was less than a year old. I've never been back There. Hopefully one day I'll visit Lynchburg, Va. I recently put a deposit on a Harley Davidson 120th Anniversary Road Glide Special in Las Vegas, Nv.
@@mixedraceable Now you're speaking my language. Two things I love...motorcycles and LAS VEGAS! Love Vegas and I go every single chance I get. Congratulations!!!
@@TyFromTennessee Thanks Ty I appreciate 🙏it very much!!! I've been in Las Vegas, Nv. for 15 years now. I'm from Oahu 🏝 I took the Las Vegas Harley Davidson Riding Academy 🏍 msf course last year which I passed. I should be getting my 120 th anniversary road glide sometime in August or September. There are only a few left out of the1600 RG 120th an. ever to be made in production w🌎rldwide. In the mean ⏲️ time enjoy your bike 🏍
Thank you for the information. I can buy that Ducati Streetfighter V4S and know I got a bargain!
Do it if that’s what makes you happy! Thank you for watching!
You’re the type of buyer the dealer loves. Hook line and sinker the whole way. All the extra programs and fees is what they make the most $ on. Warranty and maintenance programs are never worth the cost and most never end up using them. Setup fees are way over inflated. It literally takes the dealer less then a couple hours to setup the bike. Everything is negotiable at the dealer and if it isn’t go somewhere else.
Thank you for your feedback.
Okay, we have been friends for a long time. I have two points from this video. First, when people say you didn't get the bike for MSRP, they are correct. Every dealer puts all of those extra charges on the bike. I have never heard of WalMart prepping an orange or a banana to sell it. The freight is the cost of doing business for the dealer. I am not saying it is not worth it to some people; I am just saying it is a way to mark up the bike. I do like the tire packages, makes sense. I have never bought the service package; I like doing my own services. The main thing about the video is what you stated in the beginning. It is NO ONES DAMN BUSINESS WHAY YOU PAID! I would let everyone think you paid $100,000.00. Ride Safe
Thanks HDR for your feedback. I appreciate it very much! I don't mind disclosing how much I paid if it helps someone else hunt down a deal that is good for them. It certainly makes for interesting discussion in the comments section. Take care sir and thank you for checking out the video!
Now you know why I quit riding Harley Davidsons (after 30+ years) and started riding BMW's! Love that Anniversary red color though.
Thank you very much. The color really does pop in the sunlight. Have a great day!
Your dealer absolutely loves you, too. I can promise you that 😂
hahaha! No doubt there. Great group over there at White Lightning Harley Davidson. Thank you for watching!
Personally, i wouldn't trade my 1998 95th anniversary Road Glide for it or the top of the line CVO bike. Cudos to you and I pray that you can get lots of good use out of it. My bike has been autographed by Willie G and has 150,000 miles on it. It has no computer garbage on it and I can fix anything on it myself. It gets 55 miles to the gallon and will run as good or better than anything new.
That's awesome man. Glad you are happy with your bike and a Willie G autograph....that's just awesome. Thank you for watching!
@@TyFromTennessee just got my Willie G memoir book today too! IM STOKED
@@kennethwise7108 I would be too!
Had some bad experiences there . But maybe just bad days for some there. But always buy my parts there.
That's cool man. I know customer experience can be a tricky thing. Take care and ride safe!!
Harley Davidson of Lake Charles La sells all units at Msrp, then include surcharge and freight doc fees etc. then the rest is on the customer.
Sounds like a good dealership to deal with. Thank you very much for watching!
To each his or her own. As long as you're happy, and you love your bike. Anyone wants to know the cost, go price one at your local HD dealer
That’s right Robert. I would recommend the same thing. Thank you for watching!
When I bought my 2020 TG in 2019 I bought the 5 year 20K mile ESP but after 2 years I had already put 20K on the TG, so the remaining 3 years were shot. I think next time I will try to negotiate 5 years unlimited mileage or 3 years unlimited mileage.
There ya go! That's a really good idea for sure. Thank you very much for watching! I appreciate your time today!
I love white lighting Harley DavidsonI love this channel I bought my Ultra Limited FLHTK I got it at MSRP. Great dealership
Spider VPres ARM m/c Chattanooga Tennessee/ Northern Georgia. Worlds largest clean and sober m/c in the world since 1986
Thank you very much! I’ve got a bunch of bikes from those guys and it’s always a great experience. Hope to see you over there sometime. Thank you for watching!
That's a cool looking hat rack leaning against the wall.
hahahaha. You mean the punching bag or the LED sign?
@@TyFromTennessee No, the H-D exhaust at 2:30 :)
@@Jonathan-L oh yeah! That’s my old exhaust for the Low Rider ST. It’s for sale!! Hahahha.
Hey Ty, did you keep the CVO or did you trade it on the new 120th Anniversary Road Glide?
Yeah, I traded the CVO and I'm hoping to ride with the guy who bought it in the next several weeks. He loves the bike and will take great care of it!
I think the negative folks are just jealous.Sweet bike,congrats.
I appreciate the encouragement. Thank you and I hope you have a fantastic weekend!
I love the white lightning dealership in Chattanooga very good people to deal with also they were 1000 cheaper then anyone around me in Knoxville and not even that they also deliver the bike to my house and I will do more business with them in the near future
That's fantastic to read Vinny. White Lightning has always been good to me and I plan to continue business with them for a long time. I appreciate your time today!
As long as you’re happy.
Hey Rick! So far I'm very happy. The bike is by far exceeding my expectations! Thank you very much for watching! I appreciate your time today!
Does everyone like the HD Dealers way of ADM? It seems they add a little here and there vs just posting the $5,000 markup?
Hey Ray. You ask a great question. I trust my dealership and I'm confident they wouldn't do anything to intentionally overcharge me and others. Thank you very much for watching and I hope you have a great day!
@@TyFromTennessee With HD's, it's not really overcharging, it seems just the way it is.
Great topic and most people would not do it.
I won’t cover all cost involved but there’s a 5 grand markup for the anniversary RG at the dealership i use and no I don’t own one I recently bought a 2023 LRST in White Sand Pearl with no markup over MSRP
Awesome man and congratulations on your Low Rider ST. I have one in vivid black and I love that bike! Taking it out this weekend for a full day of riding! Thank you for watching!
Ty I just want to put this out there If you get tired of buying motorcycles. You can buy me one. I would hate for your dealership to suffer any loss. 😂 I'm there for you.😊
Hahahha. That is very thoughtful of you. Thank you so much. 😃
@@TyFromTennessee you're welcome.
Interesting stuff. Did you not trade in as well?
Hey Mark. Yes sir, I traded a 2021 SG CVO. Thank you very much for watching! I appreciate your time today!
All that matters is your happy
Thank you sir. I believe the same thing. Have a great day!
Great looking bike, but personally i would never buy the CVO, Limited Edition, numbered or Icon models. If you end up having a simple fender bender and any type of accident where the paint is damaged, these are limited run colour schemes and when the painted parts are gone they are gone
That means you will have to repaint to match or hope to gawd that your insurance company will repair it with a guy who can air brush but in most circumstances they will just repaint and your bike will be reduced in value significantly
For sure that would be a challenge. I'm hoping to work with a few vendors that might have Heirloom Red soon. Looking forward to that and thank you for watching!
Fairly accurate to my experience. Except it was the road glide special.
Thanks Davis. Just trying to keep things honest with my audience. I appreciate your time today!
@Ty From Tennessee it's cool man.
Thanks Ty. Was the wife mowing the yard?😎
hahahah! I know what you mean and you're the first one to notice. Someone is always mowing their yard in our neighborhood! Thanks Brett...
The shipping fee sounds very high! The Maintenance seems like a good deal though!
Hey Matt. Good point. It would be nice to know what other dealerships charge for shipping. I have zero mechanical skills so I need all the maintenance help I can get. Thank you very much for watching!
What about Doc fees? In the mid-atlantic, they always add big fees for dealing with the licensing issues with the state motor vehicles offices. For the hassles and long wait over the last couple years, I think I would have been better off just doing it myself.
I didn't see any type of doc fees listed on my paperwork. Maybe it's included in something else. The only fees (other than taxes) are the ones that I mentioned in the video. I hope it was helpful and thank you for watching!
@@TyFromTennessee Wow it's time to move to TN. Maybe the registration process is easier so they don't need to charge a "doc" fee. Maryland and Delaware dealers typically add them.
WOW, I guarantee you would pay a lot more than that at the dealerships in this part of our state. Not to mention the crappy attitude and bad service, from all the locals that I know that have bought from them. If I ever change my mind and buy another HD, I will definitely be coming to Chattanooga area to make my purchase. Who cares what you spent on your bike anyway, it is YOUR money that you are spending, not theirs, yes? It is a beautiful bike, Ty.
Thank you sir. I am certain that White Lightning would treat you well. Thanks so much for your comment. I appreciate your support for the channel!
It'll be a cold day in hell before I buy anything at MSRP. I got my 22RGL for I think 3k under MSRP.
That's great man! Glad you got a good deal and thank you for watching!
Look. Here's the deal. If you want a new motorcycle, you're going to pay for it. Some feel good when they "get a good deal" and others don't care. To each, do you. Just stop trying to tell me to be like you. Good for you, Ty, you did what you had to do and you're satisfied. That's all that matters.
Thanks for your feedback. I really enjoy the bike and looking forward to more miles soon.
@@TyFromTennessee I paid a LOT for a 23 Road Glide ST and I'm NOT quibbling over anything monetarily. Life is too short to fuss about things that aren't important. Of course others will disagree with me. BUT... can't disagree on how GREAT the RG is!!
I just got a ‘21 RGS 122 Stage 3 in Snake Venom with 5,100 miles for $27k out the door. Pretty happy with that.
Dude! Love that Snake Venom color. It's so awesome. I appreciate your time and thank you very much for watching!
A dealer in my neck of the woods is not an MSRP dealer. I had to get out of there because they were shoving a bike down my throat that I wasn’t interested in. He even said “you leave and I’ll make sure you never get this deal again. Texted me the next day saying he had good news for me and would offer me the deal again. No thanks. Did way better elsewhere
That sounds like a terrible place to do business with. Glad you were able to move on to some place better. Thank you very much for watching! I appreciate your time today!
Thanks for sharing this, but to figure out the cost of ownership, we need one more number, namely the trade-in value. That's the only way to know how much it costs to own a new bike for a couple of years.
Hey there. If you're talking about the trade-in value of the CVO I think I am going to keep that private, but I will tell you this. My local dealership really did treat me right. I got an excellent trade in value on that motorcycle. Thank you for watching and I appreciate your time.
@@TyFromTennessee Having a dealership that gives you a good sales price and a good trade-in price will make a big difference in the overall cost of ownership
@@mhoeij so very true. Thank you.
Me personally, I liked the the CVO more
Can't argue with you there Lloyd. The CVO is a fine motorcycle and I've been talking to the dude that bought it. I think we'll probably head out and ride together soon. Thank you sir.
These are the reasons I'll likely never buy a "new" bike again.... In addition to the already astronomically high cost of a new HD, the tacking on of $4-5k in additional charges is too much to stomach. Then there's the necessary upgrades(the Harley tax), the wanted upgrades and customizing....
Getting the Harley fix sure isn't cheap for the most part, but I love the brand. Ride safe out there and thank you for watching!
Wow. I've purchased from 2 dealerships and never received my paperwork in anything but a shitty paper folder. Too funny.
Oh no! hahaha! Sorry about that Grant. Thank you very much for watching!
Mount Pocono Harlry D in Tannersville pa are Great people and Fair
Hi Dennis! Glad you're near a local dealership that you trust. Thanks for watching!
The dealer prep fee is reimbursed by the factory. That fee is totally dealer mark up for the dealership. They are paying a mechanic to be there anyway, he doesn't cost them $1,199 a day. There is very little to do to prep the bike.
Hey Amber. I'm going to be creating a follow-up video with my dealership on some of this information that way everything can be explained in full detail. Probably will be a few weeks before I get everything coordinated..but soon! Thank you for watching!
@@TyFromTennessee I'll be interested to see if they tell the truth (I doubt it). Many dealerships are now adding "Dealership Fee". It's ridiculous and is nothing except straight money to them. The more people keep paying these add on sucker fee's the more they will continue. Most of these dealerships are now owned by mega car dealerships. They do the same thing. There are no starving mega dealers. Personally, you saying you're alright with the fees makes you appear to be a victim and worse.
@@amberbali8881 I have no reason to doubt my local dealership. I have purchased many motorcycles from them and they have always been fair and honest with me. It sounds like your mind is made up even before any arguments or evidence is presented. That makes you sound biased and bitter…or worse.
@@TyFromTennessee I know how the game is played. Not new to the Harley deal. Have been here since 1980, have worked in a dealership in the past and have seen many good, family dealerships be forced out of business by the current Globalist, sneaker salesman that is running the show. Biased, you bet. Bitter, yep, can't stand the way the Motor Company and the vast majority of dealerships (not all) won't stand behind or admit to some of the issues with the product. "Or worse.." Care to elaborate? Personally, you sounded like a sycophant in your video, sucking up to your dealership and corporate.
The only people that are upset are the poors who will sit at home angry everyone else has nice things when they could be out working a 2nd job or trying to improve themselves so they can find a better one in the first place.
I’ve for sure received a lot of hate and love from all types of people in life because of this bike. It’s ok, I can take it. Thank you for watching!
Quoted msrp 35,599.90. Called later and was quoted over 38,000.00.
That's no good. Hopefully you can find a dealership to work with on that one. I would never pay over MSRP for sure. Thank you for watching!
C'mon Ty, do your glasses have lenses in them? Looks like they don't. You wouldn't be putting up a facade would you? Maybe there just extra clean.
hahaha! No BS here man! I tried to be as open and honest as possible. Thank you sir!
I meant they're instead of there
how many times do you say MOTORCYCLE?
More than once....
