Thanks for making me recheck my facts ...the prices are the same on both lists.

I knew that because I checked before making the comment in the first place. I just like jerking chains sometimes.

The chin spoiler at Oneida is about a hundred bucks cheaper and looks ten times better in my opinion. Gotta like that.

Those are just the MSRP prices, guys.

I told my dealer about the prices on Oneida Suzuki and she said she'd match them.

For instance, she'll order me a lower fairing for $464.95 instead of the MSRP of $590.95.

So you know you have some room to haggle.

I haven't seen the suzuki one yet...well I did but don't recall it...but there is one I saw on EBAY that I liked better than the oneida- though it isn't bad either.

I want a dealer like that!

I can vouch for what Zen said about his dealer. They are wonderful people.

ZenMan · « **Reply #20 on:** July 23, 2007, 04:04:05 PM »

Yep. Katamaniac is right. They're the best.

They are a true "Mom & Pop" dealership, they even have their son in charge of the service department.

If you look at Katamaniac's avatar, that's his and my B1250's parked in front of Drinnon's Cycle.

This is Joe and Betty Drinnon, with my Bandit when it had 1 mile on it:

eleggua.
I, personally, took the 3 year (1 + 2) extended warranty from Suzuki on my '06 B12S......but it was a no brainer. If you paid cash and didn't use Suzuki financing, they threw in the additional two years por nada. Gotta love that.
They tried to sell me the service plan but I told them to pull their heads out, in a nice way of course. I'd just uncrated and assembled my new bike in their lot so I thought they'd have been smart enough to figure out I wasn't just another schmoe off the street...... but apparently I was wrong.

As other posters have mentioned, you've gotta read the fine print in those service agreements to make sure that it makes sense (and cents....sorry, I couldn't resist) for YOU.....and isn't just a cash cow for THEM.
Enjoy your new rides....safely!!!
