They need to sell that bike. Work 'em.
Brought my 12r to get an oil change and get an oil leak looked at. (I'd typically do this myself, but it's 115 degrees outside).
Oil change cost me $92, and the oil leak was a dry rot oil line that they "comped".
While I was in there paying I noticed they have new '08 1125r marked down to $8995. So I tell them to hook a brother up.
Guy runs numbers, but doesn't want to take my bike in on a trade. Tells me it's not a "look he can sell". I say "that's nuts, you sell these bikes new, how do you not sell a used model?!"
Bottom line, I walked out cause they were nuts.
Well, they called me today, now they want me to go back so they can "see what they can do".
ugh....
They need to sell that bike. Work 'em.
$8995 doesnt sound that great to me. I've heard people finding 09s for that. Tell them you want 4500 for your bike and the 1125 for $8500.
Just go in and see what they can do. Depending on the amount of the trade it just may be worth your while.
Recently I went to buy a clutch cable at my local HD Dealership and while waiting for the part I inquired on a deal for a new 1125R.
I was offered $4500 for my '05 XB9SX on a trade-in , "BUT" the listed price for the 1125R was in upwards of something like 11-12k, so I told them, "No, but thank you", paid for my part and left.
Yea, I don't NEED a new bike right now. So I'm just going in there to see if I can get them to bend over for me.
This will be my third bike I buy there. So who knows, maybe they'll throw me a bone. (But I doubt they will).
Worst case scenario I get a free bottle of water and tell them to kick rocks.
Sounds like a plan, maybe you can get tire pressure keychain and/or other goodies.
Good luck on the trade in, they offerd me 2200$ for an 06 xb12Ss with 13K miles. Good condition.
I said hellz na, it's paid for. I'll just keep it.
that's highway robbery adam. Whoa
They just called me and offered me $3700 for my '04 xb12r.
that's a good trade in price. we'll see what happens
