Take 6500?
No thanks
There’s multiple dealers selling them for 7-8 out the door. To pay 8500 from a private party is out there. If you change your mind let us know.
Great, then go buy it from a dealer.

Fyi i have the best wife ever i buy a bike shes the first one in the van
That’s seriously bad ass. No hard feelings with the comments I hope.
All good
Can you please tell me which dealer? I need to buy 2 brand new KX450's and would love to only spend $14k OTD. Please tell me which one, I will be there tomorrow morning when they open. I'll even tell them you sent me and I'll send you $100 for helping me buy them.
Anyways... cant believe you made a backup account just to post that lol. This was one of many around this price point.
Sport cycles rockingham about 7600 all in. As I said 7-8k. Keep looking I’m sure you’ll find lower yet.
Ah that's a 2022, wanted to get 2023's. $6500 plus freight, prep, doc fee, tax, etc. It's probably $8500-$8750 out the door. Back up account?
2022 = 2023 so there's that.
Scrolled down a little further and they had the 23's at like 6800. Better get that wallet out and post up pics of two new bikes tomorrow. Let me know when you need my paypal so you can tip me. None of those "fees" will amount to 1700 dollars.
2024’s right around the corner.
I'm being genuine, I'm not trying to be a jerk, I've just been looking around. I didn't make a backup account, I have no way of getting into my old account and wanted to comment on the post. I'll call them tomorrow, I'm serious about the finders fee if these dealers don't tack on all of these fees.
Well excuse me then, 99.9% of posts on this website are poo slinging. Forgive me.
Cycle trader is your friend. I usually start there and I buy bikes out of state and do not title them. There's no need for a title on a moto bike (in my opinion). But yeah, for 450's you should just get a '22 anyways they'll be cheaper and the new graphics aren't worth the coin.
Thanks man, these dealers around me either don't have them or charge over msrp then hit you with every fee under the sun. I'm so frustrated, feels like negotiating with terrorists. Was even worse when I was living in California... Take a look! Read the fine print.... Freight, prep, doc fees, taxes all on top of that price too! It's insane!
Pit Row
I would pay extra to not have to walk into a dealer.
That’s insane. Don’t support those guys and add them to your list of people never to buy from. Last bike I bought was MSRP + actual shipping + 100 setup. That’s it. And that was in feb of 22 when things were pretty scarce.
Maye that's why they have 2019's in stock still.
I have seen multiple people post these screenshots of low prices for Kawis, but I have yet to see or hear of anyone saying they got one for less than $8k OTD. Every person I know has been right around $9k.
After calling several dealerships around the country, I bought a ‘23 at a dealership a couple miles from my house. I paid $9,300 OTD, about $500 more than the cheapest place I could find with a true OTD price. No shipping or driving, was out of there in 45 minutes. It is titled and our tax rate is pretty high.
If the OP was in my area and this bike was available, I would have jumped at the opportunity to save $700 and not have to deal with a dealer.
Yeah I think enough people walked away because that dealer went under about 2 years ago. Too greedy and people want to feel like their local dealer has their back.
It's an old pic, that dealer went under because of their greed.
Good, they deserved it lol. Fair trade is one thing but if you exist by extorting people, you get what you deserve.
I’ll keep checking around to see if I can find some other places as well.
Years ago we used to be “lucky in ky.” If you bought out of state you didn’t have to pay sales tax. Or if you bought in ky and gave an Ohio address didn’t have to pay either. We still don’t have to title bikes, I.e. pay taxes every year or if buying used. But on bikes, The government finally cracked down on that though.
How far from columbus are you willing to drive?
EDIT: See somebody above already mentioned sports cycle in rockingham.
Freight and Prep are both marked up in the list above.
$ 750.00 to ship a 225 lb crate is about 400-500 mark up and prep at $ 250.00 is about a $ 100 mark up.
Is that in NC? It's about 15 hours round trip, kind of rough. Do they have some good deals right now?
