Default Screamin' Deal?

Local dealer is advertising this. Gotta' be a ton of fat in those bike prices.

Not really.They are probably selling bike at full retail for the buyer to get the 110 offer.

Yup, at MSRP there's more than enough room to cover this and leave some margin left over.

Dealerships don't give anything away free, especially a 110 Kit. They're not in business to loose money. They'll get guys on the labor, big time. Just my 2 cents.

Sales may be down this year. If bikes aren't storming out of the showrooms right about now, the dealers are trying to come up with a sales and service pitch.

If I was in the market for a bike (and if I lived in the US), I would just take that kit home, probably let it sit in the garage until I got bored with the 103 and then just install it myself. Not that difficult...
