• 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.

Ryker quote from local dealer

Hi folks! I'm a long time lurker here and finally in the situation where I can afford a ride. I received the following quote from my local dealer. I noticed there is no set up fee and I think I may be able to get the Doc Fee reduced. My question is....How does this look for a deal on the Ryker 900? Is there any wiggle room in the MSRP?

Ryker: $9,999
Doc fee: $199
Sales tax : $637.38
Registration fee's : $100
Grand total of $ 10,935.38
 
Pretty typical, sales tax and registration will vary across the country. My dealer admin is $99 but $199 isn't unheard of
 
Those number sound great! The 1st dealer I went to, he tried to pull the wool over my eyes, saying there is very little markup selling at MSRP (he could have meant on the 600, and undoubtedly there is MORE markup on the 900). But he wanted like $400 for assembly and $300 doc fees!!! Saved $400 going to another dealer.
 
That is about the best deal that you will get because the Rykers are new and in demand, go for it, only suggestion ..... the Ryker Rally has about $2,000.00 of options and only $1,000.00 more

I can sell you any Ryker for MSR + $125.00 (no additional fees or charges) we have locations in Arkansas & Texas (taxes and lic are separate and paid to your home state)

Looks like a winner to me.
 
I say keep shopping but I like my money!! Not sure how the Ryker market is where you are but my Rally was less than MSRP after all said and done.

Happy shopping!
 
I don't know why people are so hung up on OTD pricing. OTD pricing is going to vary widely state to state. What does matter is the price of the Ryker, accessories, and dealer fee's. For example my OTD price is going to be different if I buy in MO instead of KS because I'm a KS resident. I don't pay sales tax if I buy in MO, but I do pay sales tax when I register if I buy in MO. If I buy in Kansas I pay sales tax at the dealer. So OTD pricing doesn't mean anything. You need to look at your bill of sale for breakdown of everything.

OTD pricing is important IMO. That final check amount is what you end up paying--after all the dickering is done. You win on some...you lose on some...but it is still going to cost you X for the OTD price. That is the price that makes it comparable between dealers. :bowdown:

That doesn't make any sense. If you look at my explanation then OTD pricing means absolutely nothing. If I went and bought a Ryker Rally in MO at MSRP and added nothing it would be $10,999. If I bought the same Ryker in KS at MSRP where I'm a resident then it would be $10,999 plus sales tax because I live in KS. So in your theory MO would be the better place to buy, right? Wrong, because if I buy in MO and then when I go to register it in Kansas I then pay Kansas sales tax. It may be different in other states but I doubt it. You always pay sales tax to the state in which you reside. Now if you stay in the same state and compare 2 different dealers then yes, OTD pricing may prevail. But in the end, if you cant look at the bill of sale and tell where you are getting screwed then God help you.

I will just say...that we respectfully disagree. Not worth arguing over. PS. OTD stands for Out the Door price...the final amount you end of paying for vehicle before they add local taxes and doc fees.

License, tax, insurance should not be included in the above. That will vary from state to state.

MY definition of OTD is the amount that you pay the dealer Minus any state tax, lic fees, insurance, (because they vary from state to state.
