Is that in NC? It's about 15 hours round trip, kind of rough.  Do they have some good deals right now?

Honda east Toledo normally has good prices. (They sell Kawasaki as well)

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. 

 

Kawasaki website says $735 for destination, freight, and materials surcharge.

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.

I got my 22 last fall for $7900 otd. Had one other deal who was at like $7700 or something but it was a little bit further of a drive for me so it wasn't worth it to save $200-300. I also called around to probably 12 different dealers when I was buying, they all started out at like $9700 OTD lol eventually I just started telling them what I was willing to pay and that's how these two ended up around what I paid. The one I actually bought it from started out at like $9800 ended up paying almost $2k less.
