In the moderate-to-slim chance I break down and buy a NEW bike...
Months of reading reviews (a lot of 4way 'Smackdowns' and 'Shootouts'), shopping online, making calls, and been to Fay, Vickery, BMW, & Coyote. Gonna try to hit some others this weekend. Tempted mostly by the '12 CBR1k & '12 R1. Any specific dealers you guy recommend and/or got decent deals below MSRP? Online, I noticed from $1k to $1400 markup from dealer cost, but I know bike dealers aren't like new cars, not a hold lot of wiggle room? I know there will be D&H/setup on top too.
It's gonna take a sweet deal to tempt me away from just a clean used bike for cash and no loan. If this is a lost cause, feel free to say so. TIA...
