I am getting close in my decision to buy a Volusia 800. Yesterday at the dealer I got some initial numbers for its cost; $6,499.00 cost for the bike, $149.00 shipping fee and $249.00 assembly fee. Never buying/owning a bike before I have several questions for the forum; 1) What could be "normal" expected additional fees associated with its purchase? 2) What are the usual percentage markups? 3) Is negotiation for the final price similar to buying a car? 4) Is there a website where I could go to find out what the dealer invoice would be on that bike? My desire is for both me and the dealer to have a positive outcome from the sale of the bike. I certainly do not want to offend any dealers that are part of this forum but want to become a bit more educated to make sure I'm getting a fair deal. Thanks for any advice you can provide. |
