...my take is before buying its so important, after buying not so much. There are so many
factors!...deluxe or standard, do you price in a possible paint job down the rode, what about
a trade in, do you get the 20% of on windshield! fog lights! too much.

For a straight-up deal yes, many places now have $16,950 for standard, $17,950 for deluxe.

But how close are they? etc etc. my local place gave me a discounted paint job and a $1000 more
on my scooter than anyone within 2000 miles, and fog lights, center stand, clear lenses BUT
in order to get that I missed out on the delux with heated grips and backrest, both of which
I'm hunting for my bike, so, many variables involved in a deal.....do I LOVE this bike------

HELL YES, but I really really miss the heated grips and backrest...and those dang turn signal
cancelation control......!
