Only $10 for all 2024 SX, MX, and SMX series (regularly $30).
But it will not and cannot happen in the powersports industry due to the majority of an OEMs lineup having to be registered and licensed through DMVs. Street bikes, scooters, watercraft are all required to be sold and registered by licensed dealers
The whole model is so fucked for the dealers. The OEMs control everything - the dealer pricing (aka wholesale) and also msrp. So dealers are forced into buying products at shitty margins.
The Shop
At that time a yz250 retailed for around $7700 cdn. Invoice cost was $7000 ish. But then you also got a reimbursement from Yamaha which was another $400. So dealer cost was actually $6600. Plus assembly and PDI.
8 more have some restrictions (usually number of outlets).

Same goes for parts departments. I was working with a local dealer in PA, but after getting the same discount through Motosport.com, where they will assign someone to work directly with you if you have any questions, and they ship super fast, I haven’t been back to my dealer. Honestly if you try Motorsport.com once you won’t go back. All OEM and aftermarket in one place, great prices, quick shipping.

“Sorry Sir, we don’t consider this to be a warranty issue. Now you owe us $1000 for our time plus shipping if you want your bike back.”
No thanks.
The YZ is a decent bike, but not worth that price IMHO since it really hasn’t had any major upgrades. I can’t believe anybody would pay that much for one.
The frame is 15 years old, the engine is 22 years old.
It's the same way the 2 stroke Super Jet went.
