Shop around. You can find better on a used bike. Even though it is an 09 its still used and many here can tell you of better deals elsewhere around the country. But if it's what you want then get it. You won't regret it.
I will add that if that price includes tax, license and other fees then it could be a good deal.

2009 coyote is a good ride.

I wouldn't pay $24k for a Coyote. That'd be throwing money away.
These bikes are worth whatever you're willing to pay for them, but for your own good, take advantage to a bad economy. I wouldn't pay over $20k for a K9.
Shop smart. If you are willing to travel to TN, there's a 2008 Mutt for $14.5k on Craigslist.
I would look for like a 2007 or 2008 K9 for $15-18k and save $10k+.
Honestly I echo what others have said...
I wouldn't pay anything over something in the teens. Closer to mid teens the better. Everything will come with a 2 yr past new warrenty. So even if you get something with 9 months warrenty that will at least give ya a chance to shake it down a bit with a warrenty to help.
However, I think a better question is... how is your wrenching skills? What do expect out of a bike? Have you owned a bike before?

I lov to turn wrenches but I don't want a headache. I lov the big dog models. I want a good deal on a good bike. I have a dealer here in IL with a new 09 coyote for OTD 24500. Then there is a dealer in TN with a 09 mastiff with chrome package only 800 miles for 24000 plus 500 delivery and of course I will have to pay IA taxes on it since im registering it in IA. I only payed 4000 for my VStar so forking out 20000 or so for a bike has me a little worry. I dont want to get screwed is my biggest thing.

It's in Spring Hill. I don't really know anything about the Mutt, other than the fact that this particular one in pictures looks similar in size to a Mastiff except it has spoked wheels and a 250 rear tire.
BIG DOG MUTT 2008
I don't know the guy, so I won't vouch for him, but I'm sure he's legit. He's been trying to sell it a while and has came down from like $20k I think.
If you find a bike local to me, I'd be more than happy to look at it, hear it run, and take pics of it for you. I don't mind traveling to find a good deal. I went to Oklahoma for mine.
