Both bikes will be sold at full MSRP as well...

And I wonder if the fine print says you have to pay full MSRP on whatever the new bike is...

I did this deal. Here's what it is. You buy any new sporty. You can trade it in anytime up to 2 yrs later. It must be traded in on any large v-twin (read Twin cam)/ any non sporty bike. You then get full MSRP for trade in value. You basically just owned the bike for 2 yrs for nothing more than tax, gas, oil.

Well I work on and ride with and have rode many jap cruisers. They are fine. They do what they do at their cost well. But I will tell ya. You pay more for a HD for many reasons. The bike is simply better in so many ways. Especially when you start working on them. The HD also has more power. My wife's 883 could easily out run a Honda 1300 and a rejetted Honda 1100.
The problem with this entire thread is that you have a bunch of riders that don't ride cruisers and really don't work on them. You can't compare a sportbike or dual sport to this segment of riding.
Bottom line. You get what you pay for.
The lincoln is better than the chevy
The cadillac is better than the ford
Mercury is similar to buick
Don't bitch about the price of the lincoln because you can buy a chevy that will also drive down the road. There is a reason why the lincoln is more money.
But I wouldn't know anything about it. I never work on bikes. I haven't rode most brands and styles.
Plus its only my $0.02. It's not yours.
