No Monkey for now

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.

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

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