    Tips for buying a new bike from a dealer?

    Big ups to Luigi at Snow City for helping me out. Put a deposit down today. BOOM! Emailed another dealer I was talking to and told him I went elsewhere and he immediately lowered his price by $200. THAT BS is exactly why I started this thread. I told him he should have offered me that to begin...

    Xsr 900

    I believe the 60th anniversary is $500 more than the regular XSR due to the paint scheme. That being said, the yellow race blocking is obviously the correct choice. I expect pictures when you receive it!

    I need some help with valuing a bike...

    Looks reasonable to me, try purchasing the kijiji "top ad" thing, it keeps it at the top of the ads section for a few days for like $5 or something like that. I did that once and it worked for me.

    Tips for buying a new bike from a dealer?

    I forgot about Asseltines, I think my old man knows them. Thanks! I know I don't neeeeeeeeeeed the pipe. But shooting flames is awesome, so, I kinda gotta have it. As for the windscreen, I have custom plugs, so those will have to do until I can replace it. What have you done for bags? I saw...

    Tips for buying a new bike from a dealer?

    Price OTD from dealers on the phone seems to be the same across the board at around 11k (+HST). One place said up front they would reimburse me the price of the first service (since I'm not riding to KW for a service) and any accessories would be a free install. SO, thanks again to everyone...

    Xsr 900

    I think he means the suspension and throttle issues. From what I've read, the XSR has none of those. The throttle mapping was updated on the FZ for 2015. The budget suspension is still on the FZ, hence the cheaper price. Good call on the XSR, it's a tough choice for me between that an the FJ...

    Received speeding ticket, paralegal recommendations?

    I used XCopper and it was a complete waste of money. For something not crazy serious, I would represent myself next time.

    Tips for buying a new bike from a dealer?

    I'm going there Monday. I hate this sh**. Just sell it to me at a price where you can make money and I'm not getting screwed. How friggin hard is that?? We've moved past the barter system I thought. If anyone reading this is a Yamaha salesman, PM me! :agave:

    Tips for buying a new bike from a dealer?

    By OTD price, you mean sticker price on the bike before all the taxes and whatever other ******** they try and tag on?

    Question about full faced helmets

    This sounds accurate. You don't want pressure points on your forehead or around your head, but your cheeks should be squished into your face.

    Tips for buying a new bike from a dealer?

    I looked, the akro pipe is the same price online and the grips are yamaha OEM and fit right in to the existing switch gear. The $1500 hard bags that DON'T FIT A HELMET I will be passing on however!

    Tips for buying a new bike from a dealer?

    Thanks for the tips guys. It's a 2016 fj-09, at Snow City. You're all saying pretty much what I was thinking when it came to the fees. I'm fine with the base price of the bike. It's all the extras that kind of rankle me, and he didn't really want to budge on them it seemed. I could buy the...

    Tips for buying a new bike from a dealer?

    Yeah, financing the balance for 60 months at 3.49%, which I'm pretty happy with. I don't actually expect much more to be taken off the price, but I don't want to pay for install of the accessories. And an extended warranty wouldn't be bad either. I think maybe put 3k down, pay for the acces...

    New bike thoughts!

    Check out a Z1000, they seem to fly under the radar for some reason. The insurance category is much nicer on the wallet as well.

    Tips for buying a new bike from a dealer?

    Hey everyone, I've been shopping around looking for something and I almost pulled the trigger the other day. I've never bought anything brand new through a dealer before so I thought I'd ask here for any tips. Bike price was around 10,500, plus freight (500), financing fee (200), assembly (250...

    I Saw You: V.2.0

    Had a few choice word with a young lady on a scooter who was filtering through traffic using the bike lanes on Cosburn. She didn't seem to understand the issue.
