    Buying new Suzuki, shop suggestions???

    I am buying a new (2011) GSXR750 this week. Anyone have dealership recommendations? Looking for a good deal at a shop that will haggle.

    Joe. I believe he's at fay meyers or rpm. Either way make sure you check everywhere online and see what the 2011's are going for before you get to any shop.

    And here I was thinking you were selling the SV to pay for the wedding.

    Yep... My suggestion is to "shop" for a different manufacturer
    Do not put off living the life you dream of. Next year may never come. If we are always waiting for something to change...
    Retirement, the kids to leave home, the weather or the economy, that's not living. That's waiting!
    Waiting will only leaves us with unrealized dreams and empty wishes.

    There are tons of GSXR's on CL right now if you want to buy used and save quite a bit.

    BTW - did you sell your SV via CSC or CL or other?

    While the post-sales support was horrible, I was able to haggle pretty heavily with Fort Collins Motorsports for the wife's 09 GSXR. They weren't of the mind of taking money off, but giving me accessories (can, windshield, sliders) at a pretty reduced rate was doable...and installed.

    Good looking bike. Now go kick it over onto it's side, so you can get the first scratch out of the way and enjoy it!

    Yeah, if it's anything like the wife's 09, it unbolts, you can screw in L-Brackets from Home Depot painted Krylon black angled to fit the bike plate.

    $8 fender eliminator and it looks good...
