Default Do You Think This Would Fly?

Do you think a dealer would accept this offer?

MSRP - $1,000 + $335 (Freight) + $50(Doc Fees if Any)

20% off parts and free installation at the time of purchase.
20% off parts and clothing for an additional 90 days but not free installation.

If you don't think an offer like this would be accepted. What is a reasonable offer? I live in Oklahoma in case location matters.

Yes I beleive a dealer will take that. Maybe not every dealer but there's one out there somewhere that will. Someone was telling about a dealer offering 11% off some of their bikes. I 'd shop it around some. Good luck, STafford

Nothing is impossible, but that sounds very improbable

BB,
some northern dealers are doing $1K under MSRP on 07's w/no freightor setup.
Chicago comes to mind as I spoke with a salesman last week. They give 20% off on parts and will work with you on labor. I'm not looking to buy but a friend is in Ohio for the holidays and he's looking.
Just sayin...

Sure that might fly (on an 06). You might wanna check the weather reports to see if hell froze over today, if you are looking at an 07.

If you are patient, yes, you can get this deal on an 2007. I did about the same on 50th Anniversary Sportster, but without the 20% off deals. Mine was MSRP minus $220, a Memphis Shade (take-off, but like new) and the dealer covered shipping $260, doc fees ($300 here) and set-up fees ($225).

Depends on the model. A highly desired model (Road King Custom) you'll probably pay over MSRP. Last years 883Low in an ugly color? They'll probably take $1000 under MSRP and throw in a free full-face helemt so your friends won't know you bought a pink Hog.

Well, what do you think is a reasonable offer then?
