Hi folks-
I'm going for a test ride on Tuesday. I'm looking at a very clean (immaculate?) '06 K1200GT to add to my stable (no, I'm not getting rid of the '92 K75S!).
The asking price is $10,995 and the bike has 27k miles on it. I'm hoping to talk the dealer down to $10k if possible.
Does this sound like a reasonable price? The bike has many extras; large trunk, driver's backrest, and all of the options that were available at the time including onboard computer, heated grips and seats, etc.
I know I'll be paying a slight premium buying from a dealer, but their financing is very attractive. I already called my insurance company, and with the multi-bike discount I'm looking at an extra $300/year...not bad for full coverage.
So please tell me what you think of the price? Um, hopefully before Tuesday?
Thanks all!
Rob
p.s. any warnings about failures or difficult service would be welcome as well, I plan to do most of the work (if any) myself. Thanks again!
