• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Anyone purchased a bike remotely from iMotorsports?

:D That's why I prefer to remain "well-fed"; it keeps me in place! :thumbup:
Besides: fat people are perceived as being jolly, so I'm going for the full-boat "Santa Claus" package! :D
 
JC,
Soaking wet: Patti might weigh 110 pounds...
It's not the bike that's getting moved around by the wind: it's the operator. nojoke


Oh, Bob! Aren't you sweet! And a liar! :lecturef_smilie:

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.
 
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.
 
we werent trading anything in. imotorsports is about 90 miles away and
in a suburb of chicago. got a price from them and loves park motorsports
north of rockford. they came in 500.00 less than im.might have had something
to do with the 3 arctic cat sleds i bought over the years but they were
identical except color. and 500.00 is a lot.
 
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.

Tried that. Even with shipping cost they would not come within 1500 of the same numbers. Tried Mancuso and Conroe. Mancuso would have had to beat the deal by a large margin to convince my wife of EVER doing business on a new bike with them again. Conroe was nice and professional to deal with but admitted they could not come close to the deal. Accused iMotorsports of selling below cost.

It is what it is I suppose.

I've never paid one from any of the local banks or CUs. Nor Sheffield, Ford Motor Credit or GMAC. Most are simple interest loans with no prepayment penalty.

In my case, the financing is through a local CU that I actually came to know through a previous dealer financed loan years ago. Been doing business with them since as they are convenient and competitive on loans.

Thanks for the answer and I agree with your decision to go with Imotorsports. All dealers pay the same plus the same shipping as the shipping is a factory negotiated price with their contract shipper thus a common fixed wholesale price across the country. The local Houston dealers were quoting BS pure and simple.
 
While we're talking about iMotorsports...

They have great prices on parts. When you're shopping for parts, give Bill (parts mgr) a call. Be sure to tell him you're a Spyderlover. You'll be surprised when you hear their prices.

Dealers must have a pretty big mark-up on parts as I got 25% off a couple of things (heated grips & 2-up shock) by showing an on-line price. Didn't bat an eyelid at matching the price. May have been that specific dealer of course.

So I would always aim to get as close to 25% off as you can when buying parts from a dealer. That must still leave a profit for them.
 
honda east in ohio is a good one too. they carry every brand known to man
[except h d]. bought honda and victory parts at a great disc. free ship over
$100.00.

Agree, now if we can only convince them to add the parts lookup diagrams and online ordering to their site like the other major Can Am parts retailers already have.
 
As I said before my only issue was getting the bike after paying for it. My salesman was not Jason so I kind of thought that might have been the issue. When they shipped mine it was with their own truck and trailer. Did not meet the promised date but really was not that late. I understand they did not want to sent a trailer out with out being full.

As I said before I gave my local dealer the chance to try and come close price wise but there was still almost $2500.00 difference.

I purchased mine at IMotorSports, Jason was my salesman, I live in Mooresville In, we closed the deal on the phone, I took my trade up to them signed the paperwork, put my 2015 Spyder RT Limited on the trailer and headed home, they knocked off $750.00 for me picking it up so they wouldn't have to ship.
It was that easy!
Ride safe!
