03 Meanstreak (tasteful purple...not flamboyant purple)with 7400 miles for $5800 from the dealer. It helped that the bike was JUST traded in and I was able to pay with cash. Came with backrest/rack, V&H pipes and it was clean.

I sold my M50 a few days ago and was really missing being on a bike. I had a few posts out with some bikes I was looking at. The Dyna superglide and the Meanstreak were tops on my list. I had been looking around for both and sent a few emails to the dealers if they had any meanstreaks around.

Yesterday I saw a superglide at a used harley dealer for about 8k and tried to get the 2-3k of it financed. I got turned down because I just bought a house and I didn't have a long enough history of credit.
When I get home dissappointed, I see the dealer just got one in and quoted me 5995. So I go in this morning, its like 6300 OTD. But of course when they call in the bank for financing, their bank doesn't finance used bikes and I was able to make my offer. The bike was in great condition with low miles so I went 5800 cash OTD.

This was a better deal than some of the craigslist ads I've seen.
