I purchased my 2015 RT Limited from them last July!! Everything was done on the phone. I drove from Ohio to Chicago to pick it up. I have a truck and trailer. Everything as agreed on the phone. I would highly recommend them.
Good luck

Also when I traded my 2012 RTS in on the 2015RTS, they never once asked to see pictures of the bike or anything. All they wanted to know was how many miles I had on the bike.

Based upon this thread I decided to contact them today about trading my 2014 RT-S SE6 for an F3 T. I got an email from Jason B. and he asked me to email him pictures of my 2014 RT-S. Hmmmm, wonder why I'm being asked for pictures.

. . .
The F3T won't be any better in a cross-wind. I was riding in western Nebraska at that time and almost got blown off the Spyder!
I bought my F3T from Pitbull around SF this year. My CU just deposited the funds into my bank checking account (a couple doors down from the CU) and I wrote a personal check to Pitbull.
Edit: After reading the rest of the thread, CONGRATS to your wife on her F3T!

Neither have they!

Patti,
If the wind almost took you off of the bike: try bringing your knees in against the tank, to stabilize yourself on top of the bike.
We sit on the bikes, and are held in place by our grip on the bars, and the weight of our .... bodies on the seat.
Well Bob, apparently they have bought a "Pig in a poke"......Ex-Rocket posted that he bought his F3 completely over the phone with them and he said "they never once asked to see pictures of the bike or anything"

Then everything has gone sideways. Still trying to work it out but at the moment they are demanding full certified funds payment before shipment. Financial institution has refused and its highly out of normal business practice. It all feels very shady now. Just that 'something is not right' feeling.
We are still trying to work out something that works for both us and them but not done yet. Since they are a forum sponsor and I have seen others on here mention doing business with them, thought I would ask how things have gone.
I still hope this goes well later today but just about ready to walk away and start over elsewhere. Its just that the have the bike and agreed to a very fair price for it and our trade. Hate to start over.
Why can't buying bikes and cars be as simple as placing an order on Amazon?
HI glad It worked out I just purchased a new F3S from Jason at Imotorsports and everything went great , yes it's uneasy to do the deal that way but they delivered the new one picked up the trade in with out a hitch . Jason gave us what we wanted for our trade and a great price on the new one I wouldn't hesitate to buy from them again.
Yes I did send them pictures of my RSS we traded in.

I purchased from them and had Jason as my sales person. They were awesome. I chose to have my wife drive me to Chicago from MI and I rode it back.
I have also had great service from them.

Louis Motorsports and dealership near New Braunsfel.....both never got back to me. I called each twice. And Pitbull Powersports in Springfield. MO was willing and eager to deal with me.

Unless I substantially misrepresent the trade in, they are not under much risk, its fully covered under a BRP warranty and insured by Geico until they pay it off.
Its not all that uncommon when dealing with rare cars. This one just happens to be more mundane.
Glad to hear things seem to be working out. Hope to ryde with you and Louise soon.

I beg to differ. There were 2 RTs and 2 F3s in our group. The RTs fared FAR worse in the cross winds. Its a SIGNIFICANT difference and was very obvious in our group.
We got the funding worked out. iMotorsports accepted a signed contract from us and a payment guarantee from the CU. They will get paid when the bike shows up, we are happy with it and I register it and title it, bring a copy of the title application to the CU showing it done with them as a lienholder. I had offered to give them a credit card deposit for the full amount until they got the funds but in the end they did not need it. There is no need for the money to actually change hands until the bike is delivered. It should be no different picking up in person or having it shipped many states away.

It's not the bike that's getting moved around by the wind: it's the operator.

Well, that would certainly make a difference!

Oh, Bob! Aren't you sweet! And a liar!
But the wind wasn't just affecting me. One time after a semi passed, the wind hit my Spyder so suddenly, the Nanny kicked the cruise control off.

Just a followup...
Here we are 2 weeks later and the bike has not yet shipped. We still think everything is done as far as the deal, financing and paperwork but they seem to be having trouble getting it shipped to us. Hard to be patient waiting for a new toy. Especially when we were promised she would be riding by now.
We wait some more I guess.

Congrats on the new ride and yes waiting sucks.

I am very curious..............
If you have a dealer that is decent and conveniently close, why don't you take the imotosports deal to them and have them match or get very close. You then would help keep your local dealer in business and also have a good relationship with them on issues like service, parts and accessories. Can not imagine not riding your new steed home.

If you have the dealer finance it and later pay off that loan, aren't you paying 2 loan origination fees? Usually 500 to 1000 non-negotiable.

I don't think there's a loan origination fee with an auto/motorcycle loan. I think that's only for home mortgages.
