That is basically cost plus fee s 18599 is cost plus 495 freight plus setup and tax. That dealer must not sell many SGS or was hurting for sales

And then that's no room for the sales tax, doc fees, title transfer and plates.

I'll be that guy. .... I call BS... forget pics of the bike, I say pics of the invoice or it didn't happen

No sales tax in my state. There is literally two charges on my invoice, one being $21,500 for the bike and $275.00 for the doc fees. Which brought my OTD to $21,775.

How many miles on bike? Just because its a 16 it does not mean its brand new. Demo someone may have brought the bike back........

I will say for my area that's an amazing price if that's what you got it for.

Yeah. Don't let them fool you. 21K OTD is no where near average.
Average is closer to 24-25K at MSRP (color) + Freight, setup, and Doc fees. Taxes extra.
Some are able to get doc/freight/setup dropped and/or 1K under MSRP or what have you, but it almost always ends up in that 23699 range-ish OTD no matter how it's dealt.

You did good.
