I couldn't believe they tack on 1200 bucks for prep, processing, freight, etc. on top of the price of the bike. The last time I bought a new Harley, they didn't add on any of that. I guess times change.
that's pretty standard nowadays, no matter what shop you visit.
I was going to buy a Husky back in December, they wouldn't negotiate at all, they wanted full retail plus everything you mentioned. Went to KTM instead, they wanted a sale, basically the same bike. I would have paid 200 dollars more for the Husky, but not 1200.
I called them before before picking the ktm, they then came down to possibly 900 dollars difference on a maybe.
fk em , ktm was in the bag and easy to deal with.
