| How do other riders carry any luggage on this bike? Does HG make a sissy bar for it etc? Also, did the dealer come off the price any? I am looking across the the country for one.

| i found a new 2005, and was offered a $4000 discount, no frt charge, and no setup cost. i was going to buy it, but was concerned about the cost to change wheels/tires, swing arm. as i was at the dealer a 2006 screaming eagle fat boy came in, their first and only one. the 2006, has a new frame, swing arm, wheels/tires. perfect for me. the deal was $4075 off their list. it seemed fairly easy, if you have time and patience i think you could buy an 06 for $24000 plus tax only. 05's $22000.

| | forget the price. There is nothing stock on these. Harley has come out with a bunch of accessories specifically for this bike. Including a pretty good lookin seat for a passenger |

| I own a 05 FLSTFSE and I got the rear passanger pillion, put on a detachable sissybar and luggage rack. with a universal expandable T-bag hung on the sissybar, you can take plenty of clothes etc. for a long weekend for 2. if your riding solo on a short ride you just pop off the sissybar and the bike still looks sharp

| Wow. Mr. Metz got the deal of a lifetime. No one down here in South Florida is letting 'em go for less than retail, most are a bit over...and that's for the 05's! I have not seen accessories exclusively for this bike but I may be looking in the wrong place. Any hints guys?

| You can buy a bag that will go behind the rider and attaches with bungee cords. This will be big enough for a day trip. Saddlebags are not an easy option. These bikes are selling on ebay with minimal mileage for around 23,500.

| I got the passenger pillion and detachable sissy bar. I can put two bags on, one facing forward, and one behind. Between and above the bags I put my tent and sleeping bag. I also hooked two portable folded up in to tubes lawn chairs on the sides (kinda like machine gun look). I then rode 5500 mile round trip to Sturgis and back. Butt got a little tired, but all in all worked great.Took me less trhan 5 minutes to put on and take off b ike each evening/morning. I also had packed my chrome pillion so during the day I had the chrome pillion back on and the sissy bar off the book.
