I paid $7400 here in FL. I work at a dealer though. If you mention Florida Motocross Group at almost every dealer here in FL they give you a better price. I think if you can find one around $8500 it would be a killer deal.

By telling someone you paid 7400 - then saying 8500 is a good deal - it kinda makes 7400 sound like the good deal. Just keep the deal to yourself!

I think dealers should make money too - and selling a dirtbike for 100 or 200 dollars profit doesn't make a 7000 dollar investment seem worthwhile vs other investment options out there in the world....

And guess what - dealers ARENT supporting dirtbikes...cause it AINT worth it.

Next time you walk in and ask for an oem top end and they have to order it....yeah - comes with also wanting bikes at cost.


Just my two cents...if true invoice is 7000 - then 8500 OTD is a SMOKING DEAL
IN tx tax would be 8.25% = 577 bucks on 7000 - new total 7600

you DO pay shipping on bikes as a dealer - between 100-350 per bike depending on how it was ordered - say 150 for a big dealer per bike. 7750


you DO pay to have a kid assemble it and sign his name on an OEM check list for warranty purpose - 50 bucks up to 7800

you DO pay to dispose of the crate - say cost averaged 10 bucks a bike 7810

you DO pay to have floor space/shop - a small retail space easily be 3k a month - most decent dealers pay around 7-10k a month - averaged over 100 units for that sort of space - 100 per unit 7910

You DO pay taxes on the property if it's already paid off and your not leasing - wont add in.

you DO pay a dealer franchise fee in tx just for the right to sell - depends per state - tx it's like 1k all in per year or something off hand

you DO pay a franchise tax in tx if you do over 1000000 gross as a business - not that lofty for a powersports dealer. In tx thats like .3 percent - so not much but when your selling at cost - it's just a loss.

You DO pay the sales guy - absolute shit on dirtbikes - between 3-10 percent of PROFIT off the bike - call that 100 bucks if you tried to sell for 1k profit

And if your a poor bastard like me you maybe took a risk trying to make money and financed the sucker - call it 2 percent on the unit if you sold it in 3 months - 140 bucks

Your at 8100 just selling it at cost....and that's on the low side - if cost were 7 - a fair estimate.

10k OTD is probably a little too steep to be competitive in the market - but if he said 9k - he'd be making no more than 10 percent on his investment if he were LUCKY...

I think that is a really crap move to say what you paid at your dealer. Your boss was awesome enough to do that for you and you go and repay them by putting it out there on Vital, which will no doubt create plenty of unwanted drama not just for your boss, but for potentially every Yamaha dealer across the country. And to me you did it just to "show off" It's like you are saying ner ner I paid $7400 but if you can get it for $8500 you are getting a killer deal.

Bingo, posting hookup prices puts dealers in a bad position. Now people know what the bike can be sold for.

No, you aren’t an employee. Just like I can’t get a Toyota Tacoma as cheap as someone who works for Toyota. He’s an employee with employee pricing. Employees everywhere get better deals than the customers. I’d love free taco’s from Taco Bell. Am I mad that employees get them and I don’t? No, it’s just how it is.

If you think YOU Are entitled to the same price as an employee, you’re high. Everyone here gripes and complains about how the Industry is in trouble. It’s in trouble because of duchebags like you wanting everything as close to free as you can get. If you don’t want to pay, then pick up tennis and go haggle someone over the prices on tennis balls and racquets.
