Nice play with the wording there
...in my case she knew I had been having an issue with my '14. She also knows after 27 years that I don't make vehicle purchases lightly...the cars we've had have lasted 15 years on average, the bikes 10. I thought I would own the '14 for a decade plus...I hope the '17 lasts me till I I can't.(03-04-2018, 01:50 AM)VLJ_imp Wrote: I also bought the four-year warranty, for $399.
Even better
I like throwing the numbers out there so that it's not such a mystery. I had no idea the warranty pricing was negotiable. I have a feeling had I said "how about 400?" he might have said yes. But I'm happy with the purchase price, the unsold '17s will probably drop a bit more if they last beyond this summer, used ones of course will be there...but with the 0% financing for a year, it seemed like a good time to commit.(03-03-2018, 02:58 PM)max_imp Wrote: Good to see pdedse, looks like the honda pulled hard on you, that's interesting especially after such a short period.
Guess it will be answered in good time but how did it feel to ride away again on the new machine?
any re-occurring thoughts?
congratulations; max
I live 3 hours from the dealership, so I drove "it" home mounted in the back of the pickup. Still don't have registration or plate for the bike, so I've ridden it 3 whole miles...around the block and up to 25mph she's a champ!
My main thought was simply "feels like I'm home".
