That's the greatest!!! ::rof::rof::rof::rof:Took a while for her to understand that this is her rival not a gift.
I just got back from the big dealership out in Covina. They have the most insane markups on the new FZ6R! $600! Plus another $600! They claim they have to fully assemble the front end! Can anyone confirm that this bike needs extensive assembly when it arrives in its crate?
So they are having a sale and advertising a price of $5999. But after the huge fees, taxes, license (which are VERY high here in CA now) the OTD gets up to about $7800. It's not always fair to compare OTD prices as CA's are going to include 9.25% taxes and higher registration fees.
What was silly was they said they couldn't give me less than a 10% discount on the new gear I would want. I don't want to ride a white or yellow FZ6R with my Kawasaki green! LOL
Guess I'll be trying the place near my work where they said $7299 OTD. If they can give me a discount on new gear I'll be letting the forum know.
Wow the Gov. Swartz really stuck it to you guys! IMO I have the white bike and I love it as is! Even if I did not my bike is covered when its not being ridden and I'm hardly looking at it when I ride. Also the from what ive seen on the market the purple would peek through what they have!IN Ca we cannot register new, out of state bikes, which means we can't take advantage of most low priced eBay sales, as they are almost always out of state. When buying a new bike here you have to pay DMV and licensing fees at the point of sale. We also have a 9.25% tax rate in L.A.! No sense in driving 250 miles to get a rate .5% lower on a $7000 bike.
Plus Sacramento just raised all the license fees.
And I looked and saw that you can't peel the feminine graphics off the white FZ6R...They are clearcoated over. They wanted to protect the tanks graphics, which they don't even have on the yellow ones! My tank bag didn't cover them enough...
Has anyone fitted a tank bra on their white bike? Does it cover the vines enough so that I get a more masculine and subtle look to the white bike???
