Found dealer 3 miles from my house!!!!
Stopped and talked to the owner today and he is a good guy...
They have a full service center and can order me a bike.... He seemed totally honest... Prices were quoted to me as $1650... Is that a good price? Here is the info... Give him a call http://bonowholesale.com/Home.html |

Sorry that price was for a lf200gy5..
I think it would be much easier to get tagged since he does the tiltles and stuff...... He puts together and the service center is cool I think |

The price is not horrible espicially if it comes professionally assembled ready to ride with the tag and title.

If he knows his stuff, that is a great price, but only if it is built and ready to run. You would have to decide if it is a good deal if it ends up costing more for taxes and all that. However, there is no harm in dealing, and perhaps, if you can get the bike out the door for that price, I would say to sign on the dotted line--but make sure he is reputable and knowlegeable.

I would try to bargain him some and get it so that with TAX/TITLE/TAG it comes out to about that price.
It does sound like a fair deal if it is ready to ride at signing. Prep should include the carb adjusted, bolts tightened and loctited, chain adjusted and lube, battery filled and charged, oil changed to proper oil, brakes adjusted and fluid filled, air filter oil if needed, and then also a re-inspection after the first 100-300 miles or so to re-check all the bolts are said adjustments. You could also try to get him to include a helmet, gloves, jacket or a price break on those items. Remember this stuff is negotiable, but the advantage of having a dealer right there to get parts from and help is worth alittle extra and if you are not comfortable assembling your own bike then that price is a fair deal.
