I just ran across this offer from a dealer in Carbondale, IL.

Hard to beat if you are looking to get in the CB game!
I have no connection to this dealer - just found it on Craig's List.

A NJ dealer lists a new 2013 on craigslist for $7650
Another NJ dealer lists a 2013 with 575 miles for $7199
I've emailed asking if there are any other fees.
Both are apparently closed Mondays.

Motorcycle Mall in Belleville NJ has 2014 DLX and std on the floor, and my hunch is they might have a '13 in a crate.

No CB1100 shows up in an online search of their inventory. And if you Google them, the second result you see is "Motorcycle Mall complaints." I've searched for quite a few dealer websites and have never seen something like that.

I wouldn't craft a close relationship with them on any level. They will cut a good deal, however, and if you are just looking for a bike, are ready to negotiate and pay. And then never stepping foot in the place again, they are fine. That's what I did.

Ditto for the other Honda dealer near me- Pompton Powersports. Why do dealers always have to behave like a-holes and treat you with zero respect?
This is one big reason I don't buy new from a dealer. I would much rather buy a lightly used example from an owner who took care of it. That way, I let someone else eat the 30% depreciation. I must have bought a dozen bikes in the past 15 years and only two had a dealer involved. The first one was a H-D dealer that treated me right, and the only other one was when I won a new motorcycle and picked it up at a dealership out of state.
Oh wait, there WAS one Honda dealer that I got a hot deal from. But that was a long distance deal from the Midwest. (eBay auction) My NT700V was three months old with barely 1K miles on it, still under warranty, and the price was a full 50% off MSRP. You can't beat a deal like that!

Yes, there was a 2014 Bonneville that sold on eBay three or four days ago- the nice color scheme with the black and the red stripes- for $8250. It had three miles on it, so it was "used", but with factory warranty intact. Someone got a hell of a deal. If it hadn't been in Chicago, I'd have bought it.
