Title: On sale: $13,999 brand new 2016 Victory Empuse TT (Seattle area)

Lynnwood Motoplex appears to be having trouble moving their one and only Victory Empulse TT, so they've put it on sale for about the price I bought my 2013 Empulse R: $14k.  However, since you'll be the first owner, you'll also qualify for a further 10% credit from the Feds (http://www.afdc.energy.gov/laws/11382 (http://www.afdc.energy.gov/laws/11382)).

If you're in the market near Seattle and want a brand new Empulse, this might be the deal you're waiting for.  Price good through the end of August (federal 10% credit good on purchases made through the end of 2016).

A related question on this. So will the 10% tax credit apply to the $13,999 or the original $19,999?
I believe the bill of sale will have the price of the bike as $13,999.
This is a bit confusing :)

The credit is money back against the amount of tax that you actually paid, not tax calculated from the hypothetical MSRP.

Also, that 10% doesn't reduce the money you pay to take home the bike.  It is an amount that you claim on your federal tax return document next year to reduce the amount of tax you owe.
