    Default Done Deal!

    As of 1:00pm today I now have a 2014 RT-Limited on order.

    Wife and I drove out to the Dealer and traded in the 2013 ST-Limited. We ended up getting $19,800 for trade which I thought was fair.

    So sometime in Feb or March we should take delivery of a Perl White LTD with matching RT 622 trailer. I added the heated comfort seat with driver backrest, adjustable side vents, top box liner, tonge stand and light for the trailer. I also have the chrome adjustable handlebars that got a great deal on from eBay as well as the adjustable netting for the inside of the trailer.

    Good thing I live in Minnesota or the wait would drive me nuts

    Congrats! That sounds like a decent deal as there is some pretty aggressive pricing out there for left over 2013's. I am waiting for my 2014 to arrive any week now.....it is very hard waiting!

    When I first started checking on trade in value the first dealer I talked to only offered me $15,200 for the ST-L. That was a no deal for me and I was thinking this will not happen, but I found a new dealer who was willing to work with me so it worked out great.

    Seems like a great deal to me for trade in. I've been looking at the 13 ST limiteds pretty hard and most I've found are brand new and selling for 19,600 to 20,800 so I would say you got a heck of a deal!

    That is a phenomenal trade in value considering I came from Twin Cities Motorsports today and they are selling the exact pearl white ST-L for $19,899 brand new. Consider yourself a shrewd negotiator, my friend!

    No. It was Leo's South in

    Boni Motosports was the first to offer $19,800, but was higher priced on the trailer and hitch install.

    Bingo we have a winner

    Earl was fantastic to work with
    In fact they are all great there and worth the 280 mile round trip.

    I first went there after having Boni replace my purge valve. When I had brought my bike in due to the flashing Orange screen. I asked the service writer to also check the master cylinder to make sure it was not melting. He asked why and I told him that that has happened to some members on this forum and I want to be sure it's hot napping to mine.
    He told me that barring any parts issues my bike would be ready on Saturday. That Saturday we went in to find out if it was done. I walked up to that same service writer and asked if it was done and he said I don't know is it done. I looked at him and said I am asking you.
    He than looked it up and said no it required a purge valve and they should have it done next week. I told him that it would have been nice to have gotten a call that it was not going to be ready for pick up. I then told him that to make sure the master cylinder was looked at and he said it would.
    When I received the call that is was ready I went in and asked to sleek to the mechanic that worked on the bike and the other service writer brought me to see him. I asked the mechanic how did the master cylinder look - any signs on melting? He looked at me odd and stated that there was nothing on the service ticket for him to do that so he did not do that.
    That is when I decided that I needed a new dealer!

    The scarry part to me is that this really happened. It is correct? Right?
