When shopping for a bike/car/truck the first thing I do is to visit the dealership and ask to see a written quote with all fees. Only after this are the negotiations started. The surprises are always in the "fees" involved or finding out you don't qualify for all the rebates being offered.
Pre owned bikes can often be picked up for a song if your careful and patient.


My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.
