That goes for anywhere across the country. There is really no reason to feel trapped in your area and get screwed by a dealership. Not ever.

I'll go in and talk to Woods if you want - they generally aren't my choice of dealership, they are kind of the WalMart of dealerships around here (all Japanese bikes). But, I know some people up the food chain there... so if I can help let me know.

Hell, with delivery companies now shipping bikes more often it shouldn't ever happen.

Yeah... It's like with the new Buell
MSRP is $11,995
I hear a lot of people paying 12,500 - 14,000!
No way would I do that... under MSRP or it's not gonna happen.

I pulled a fast one on 'em earlier. They called to se when I was gonna pick it up. I told them that I was gonna come by to pick up the deposit, not the bike. I told them a riding buddy works at a dealership and he quoted me at $4,400 OTD (didn't really happen). He takes a pause and says he'll call me back. Calls back and says he can match it. Badass. So now I'm gonna call up the place that my riding buddy works at and see if they can beat $4,400 OTD. He's not really a riding buddy, but I've just seen him around alot and tagged along with him at times. I'm calling them now...

It seems to be working. I just called and they said they'd beat $4,400 OTD. Only thing is, I have to go all the way across town to their shop to get the quote and possibly ride it home. The riding it home isn't the bad thing. So now, I'm gonna call the original place and tell them the other place said they'll beat $4,400. Let's see what they say...

They wouldn't say if they would or wouldn't go below $4,400. But I do have a 48 hour hold on the bike which ends Friday. I'm gonna go down to the one place and see how much lower they'll go. If it's not much lower, I'm gonna stick with the original place because they're throwing in a $100 gift certificate.
