I wonder if this will make used Groms less expensive on the used/old-new market.

$1000+ fluff just like most Honda dealers..........Angry

I was looking for a new Suzuki SV650. Called all the price "leaders" within 4-5 hours from me and went to the Suzuki dealer 3 MILES from my house. Same story except for one. $199 set-up, no freight, and $100 doc fee. Done! Gave a deposit and picked it up the next day off I had. Makes no sense, instead of driving 5 minutes I had to drive 4 hours one way. Pays to do your homework.

Definitely obscene.

I called the dealer where I bought my DLX and they're selling Monkeys at MSRP plus $189 destination and $229 documentation. I can live with that. They're located 80 miles away but I may drive up this weekend and bring home a new toy.

Yeah, sweet. In another life I could do that by weekday to urban work, and the CB by nights and weekends.


RE: No Monkey for now - Riko_imp - 12-13-2018

to be honest, 125cc would be perfect, 50cc is a liiitle bit underpowered

might look to update my daily in the futured, I'll see


RE: No Monkey for now - GoldOxide_imp - 12-13-2018

Yeah, my scooter dreams start at 279 cc so to have an option to piggyback on a freeway for short to moderate stints. 50 cc is light, but you are probably still on your first tank of gas. Thumbs Up


RE: No Monkey for now - Riko_imp - 12-20-2018

yeah, I tank once a month Smile

My Monkey arrives in March. Just MSRP out the door. By the sounds of it I ‘ve nothing to complain about.
