Default how much should i spend?

I'm going to get a Repsol 1000. I don't want to finance it on a Honda card, so I am going to my credit union to get the loan.

Now, I called Chicago Cycles and they have three in stock. How much should I pay for one? I'll be paying cash (well, it'll be cash to them).

A guy on the phone told me that if i came in there with 12,500 cash, they wouldn't say no. Is that a good price?

For $12,500 I would tell them to cram their bike straight up ther ****!!!!!!! Much cheaper to be found!!! I know of three Repsols still in the crate here for $11,215 each. Thats cheaper than what I paid for mine and I walked in with a pocket full of Benjamins to pay with!!!!!

It is all about how much you want the bike and how much you are willing to pay for. Repsol 1000RR limited edition / Nicky Hayden racing bike scheme!, you are pretty much on the spot.

A 1 1/2 month ago, when I was trying to get my bike, the Honda dealer told me there was not any available in my state. They called other dealers, but nobody had the bike anymore. It was not until I met this Honda representative in Laguna Seca Moto GP, that I got a hold of one. I have to ride the bike for 8 hours straight to get it to my town.

There are a couple of them on e-bay, you should check them out. Also, the MSRP in Hondas' website is 11,800. I am pretty sure you can negotiate this price, mainly if you are going to pay "cash" for it. 11, 500 should put you out of the door with a brand new limited edition Repsol bike.

Good luck, and let us know the final price.

One thing to think of though.....The price of the bike revoleves directly around the rules of Supply and Demand. Demand is HIGH.....Supply is LOW = You pay out the nose for a Repsol CBR. This bike is rapidly becoming very hard to locate For Sale. Just food for thought!!!
