what kinda deal

ok heres the deal.. i`ve been in my dealer many of times told them what i want and they even started to put the bike togther. and it`s sitting in the show room just waiting for me to pick it up. i`m just waiting for the money from the sale of my old home at the end of this month..so this is what we havn`t done.. well price! they told me the price of the bike is out of there hands but the toys i put on they can deal on. well so far they put about hafe the things on the bike that i want. and the price on it anyone can getit for.well i`m paying cash. and 3 hours away is trev deely HD. canadas biggest hd dealer and i no i can deal there but i want my local shop support. and it`s nice to get 10 or 20% off things.. anyway i`ve went on long enuff.. what would you think be a good deal.. i was hoping 4 25% off all my toys i put on the bike befor it leaves the store and 20% off anything else i buy. i`m dropping about 3500 in toy`s after the bike..and you can never have to many hd tee shirts..lol

RE: what kinda deal

I can't speak for your dealer, but this should have been discussed prior to ordering the bike. At this point I guess you need to get a detailed list of your bike and all the xtra's you want, then call the other dealer and get a cash price. If it is a big difference give it to the dealer you want to buy it from and ask them to at least be close. Then make your choice. You really should have done this before having the original dealer get everything set up. You are obligated to them to some degree as well. I can't imagine spending this kind of investment and not having a deal in place from the beginning. Good luck.

(what ever it was at the time 52 days )..untill i get my money from my house..i think that they know i`m not dreaming here and will buy my bike so they are teasing me by putting it together..just the price on the bike is what anyone who has the money could walking any buy it off the floor..someone could walk in there tomorrow and buy it.. they don`t owe it to me nor do i to them..

RE: what kinda deal

Wait till you have cash at hand and then go talk to all the dealers,as many as you can goto.I hear Port Moody HD give great deals.I bought mine from Barnes HD they wont wheel and deal their atitude is someone else will buy if for this price.Chilliwack HD is good to bargain with.Oh by the way don't expect any of them calling you later on after purchase and ask you how you like the bike so far.I have my 2004 Road King for sale if you know anyone interested!

RE: what kinda deal

First thing to do is walk away from the deal. They told you what they would do and you don't like it. Anybody that's not willing to walk away and shop elsewhere WILL get taken.

Second bit of free advice is that cash in hand is less desireable to a dealer because a lot of money is made from financing. Lastly, send me your money and I'll get you a bike cheap and some real estate to go with it....
