Has anyone bought a leftover bike lately? What model/year did you get an how much did you pay for it? I am thinking about getting a new bike and I was thinking about an option like that.

Yeah that was a good deal. A dealership around here has an 08 yz250f still sitting around and they want $4500 for it. I could probably get it ifor a little bit less I would think

I got an 08 RMZ450 last March for $5300 Cdn.

Think about resale before you decide if its a good deal or not. Ride it once and it's now a 1-2 yr old used bike.

I am not too concerned with resale value. I will prolly ride the bike or at least 3 or 4 years so it wont be worth much then anyways

Left over bikes are usually a really good deal. I would think if you are paying over 4,000 for an 08 you are a sucker. When I bought my 08 kxf250 brand new in 08 I only paid 4,200 out the door. When I worked at a dealership in MO we would sell last years bike for pretty much what anyone was will to pay for it just to get rid of it. When I was in Cali my buddy destroyed his crf450 and needed a new one, we went to chaparral and bought a brand new left over 07crf450 for just over 4k.

I bought a leftover CRF450 09 for $ 5788 this april. Didn't ride for more than 5 hours, so It's for sale for $ 4700. I have seen that you can get 09 YZF250 for 4300 on Ebay (plus shipping for 300-500). But I didn't bite because I didn't like the bike. Ebay also sells leftover KX250F 09 Monster Edition for 4600 plus shipping.

So Ebay it.

No extra charges. You really should never pay the freight and set up. All you have to do is ask and they will take it off. There is a lot of room in the price when you buy a bike from a dealer. They will be dick heads and kick and squirm but you can talk them way way down.

Oh yeah, and if you wave cash in their face they jump at any offer. Every time I have paid with cash and they can't resist it.
