Tell them you want to trade that exact same year, model in on a new bike. They will tell you how its not worth much because of the 2014's. See what they offer you for it. Then add like $1000 to their offer and say you'd like to purchase the one they have on the floor like that for that price. LOL. If they say they can't do that, say 'Its not worth much because of the 2014's.' Worth a laugh at least.

+1 for crimson. 17 is the starting point. Never give the asking price. Drive out for 17200.

Ask for Ken - he is the GM, and is a great, straight-shooting guy. I've bought 3 bikes from them, and they are great to deal with - before, during, and after the sale. Tell him Howard "Stick" Mumford sent you to him - maybe I'll get a t-shirt!!!!

I would offer 16,000 tops no more, a good starting point would be 15,500.
