Are Dealers Dealing?

[dobro]

I live in Florida. Are the R3 dealers moving off R3 list prices for the 12's and 13's a little, a lot, or not at all? Thanks.

When I made the deal for a 2014 Roadster the dealer was unwilling to budge on the price of $15000.00 however he discounted all of the accessories and the extended warranty. Now that the 2014's are out you may find a dealer willing to discount the 13's.

The deals are more likely on the used ones. There are some nice ones to be had.

We trudge on.

Yes

My dealership in Indianapolis has a new 2012 R3R that's been discounted for sale.

It depends on the Rocket you want. The 2013 Roadster was very reasonable, the Touring is a bit more.
What area of FL are you from? The Orlando and Daytona stores were very willing to deal.

Hey Boy's I got me a Marlin.

When the dealer saw Jim enter show room, his knees started to knock and his chest started to pound, he may have had a banana in his front pocket.

At that point, it was no negotiation, just reel him in.

For those able to find a dealer willing to deal, my hearty congratulations to you!

When I got mine (in Brea, CA), not only was the dealer not willing to deal on the price of the bike, we refused to lower the price on ANYTHING (accessories or apparel), and the finance guy even had the nerve to hit on my wife while I was sitting in the same room! The only reason they got the sale was they had the bike I wanted when I wanted it.

Needless to say I wouldn't go back if my Rocket was on fire and they had the only cup of piss left in the world

Sorry for the rant - back to the normally scheduled conversation in progress!

They are not dealing here. They seem to move Rockets fairly well, no leftovers and no discounts.

If you're in the mid-west and looking for a deal on a new, 2012 R3R send me a PM. My dealership has a new Phantom Black one discounted.

Rockets tend to be the one model dealers make decent money on.

The markup on other models isn't that great, the R3 gives dealers the chance to make what other premium-cruiser dealers make.
