I would like to know so I can haggle a little better when I go to buy. And if you could tell me the formula on how to get an invoice price as well. Please and Thank you.
Answer
5% less than MSRP. Dealerships make almost nothing on the sale of the bike. They make money on all the crap in the store, and the service for the donks that don't know which end of the screwdriver hurts the most.
So, you can go in with guns blazing or a detailed spreadsheet, but they'll shake their head and laugh. Buy two bikes, or get a new helmet, and look to get a discount on those. Accessories are a 30% markup.

How smart is someone who buys a Harley?

Above average. Less than average. What is your opinion?

One look at a nice middle aged couple decked out like costume shop bikers and walking down main street in broad daylight thinking they are badass will give you your answer. Or that half helmet or beenie, black of course, they all wear, another clue. Saw a big fat old lady on the back of a harley last year in fluffy pink slippers and purple sweat pants....another clue. All the guys who buy a brand spanking new harley and immediately pay $10K+ to have a bunch of engine work done on it to squeeze out another 10 horsepower, smart? Chrome skull turn signals? Mufflers that you can hear long after you are too far away from the highway to hear 18 wheelers any more. Motorcycles attached to big trailers. Trailering a bike to a motorcycle convention. Paying more for a 10 year old bike than it cost new....anyone pay attention to the housing bubble? $7k for a 40 hp 2011 antique. $36,500 for a 75hp 2011 antique.
Not saying these people are stupid. But they certainly have strange priorities. I think it is more like rubes on the midway. Madison avenue knows how to play with peoples heads.....kind of scary. But personally I think we are all being grifted all day long. Most of business and politics is carnies trying to get one over on the rubes.....us. The harley thing is just one of the funnier scams.
