I guess I'm kind of with Flynrider on this, at least to the extent that it comes down to the OTD price. What difference does it make in the long run if you were lured in by one price, but get the bike at a price you are willing to pay?
I don't know of any vehicle type, other than possibly a riding mower, that advertises the out the door price. You go in, negotiate a price, and either walk out or ride out. In fact, having the ADM listed gives you power because you know that they can knock some or all of that off and still make money on the bike.
Still, though, I'm a big proponent of going with your gut and if you were getting a bad feeling about how the dealer was handling the transaction, then walking away is probably the right thing.
