    Clearwater Kristas on mirror mounts and Glendas on fender with amber lens covers. LED headlight bulbs in place as well. The amber covers slip right off so I can run all white lighting as needed.

    What an egregious waste of taxpayer dollars. I lived in the south bay when they debuted these and have yet to see one apart from their debut at the motorcycle show in long beach. I'm really hoping it was just a concept sort of deal. But, if the shoe was on the other foot, I'd be stoked to ride that up and down the strand all day.

    So I've gone back and forth with the dealer re: the '14 Triumph Street Triple (3,xxx miles) I test rode this past weekend. Was prepared to pay a little more than the $6,980 they had it listed for because I know they tack on their fees and stuff. The best deal they would offer was $8,105 (total out the door) + $300 in store credit.

    I'm not off base thinking that's into "ridiculous" territory... am I?

    OTOH, the wife just found a '12 Street for $4,975. Downside is that it was kept outside, under a cover. Pics look good, but don't they always...

    The few dealers I went to didn't want to budge much if at all on their used prices.

    What's the breakdown of fees? Tax has to be paid... so that brings you to $7,270. Then whatever the tags/title/state fees are - another $200? They usually add a prep charge to all the bikes and some offered a 30 day warranty that you could forgo to save a little.

    Yeah, I'm totally good with the price, it's the extra $1200 in taxes, tags, etc. That doesn't seem unreasonable to you?

    I've never bought a bike from a dealer, so that really threw me but if it's within the realm of "normal", then I'll have to adjust! Just don't want to buy it and find out I paid way too much in "etc"...

    Here is the one in Glen Burnie -

    From their listing - *Price does NOT include Taxes, Tags, Title, Certification Fee, and a $384 Processing Fee

    And I was prepared to pay maybe $3-400 over the price, but 4x that amount? Seems like they are just trying to gouge...
