Tough night :(

Hey Horse racer.

Don't give up hope.

I bought a 1998 Valkyrie new in 98. Two years later in 2000 I wanted to get a 1998 Shadow 1100cc ACE, color matched to my Valk, for the wife. Had my dealer check with other dealers to see if they had a leftover Yellow/Cream
Shadow. Low and behold there was a 1998 yellow and cream ACE in the crate at another dealer AND it was just on the otherside of Denver.

The dealers worked a swap, wife got a 'new' 1998 in 2000 with a full warranty. My dealer nade a sale, wife got her 'new' 1998 Shadow in 2000, I got a matched set like I wanted. All was right with the world!

You can still get that '07 new next year if you still want that model year, you just need a dealer that will go the extra mile for you!

Ride safe & long,
Colorado Fats
