Two things against you here - one - it is one of the featured bikes in MI2 
which will only help sales, and two - Triumph of America has sold all their 
2000 bikes - means that a dealer only has coming in what was confirmed from 
earlier orders. He cannot order two more to replace the ones he sells you. 
So, based on knowing that he can probably sell them in the coming months at 
a higher retail, he may be less than willing to accept a lowball price. I 
would be surprised to see a deal happen on the two for much less than 18k.

Just my .02
