They’re pretty much giving away 18 kx250f’s right now so at 33 I finally got my first brand new bike!

Congrats!! Loved the 17 kawi 250f I had and I am sure the 18 is even better.

That's a sweet bike, but I was expecting a 2 stroke. Enjoy it anyway!

I’m in the market for one as well. Up here in New England, cheapest I’ve seen is $5899 + tax, set up and delivery. But I’ve seen 18 kx450’s for less. If you don’t mind, what did you pay?

Congrats on the new bike, nothing quite like it when you bring it home.

Dont forget to take it apart before you ride and grease all the linkages, axles, steering bearings and glide bolts in the calipers. Smile
Congratulations Cool

I seem to remember my 2001 YZ250F was $5499.00. Brand new and first one to the dealer. No deals to be had that early but also no bullshit delivery or setup fees back then either. They must be having a hard time getting rid of them these days.

I keep waiting for the scratch n sniff feature here , maybe we need a poll? Enjoy the new ride!

Not bad at all for a current model right before summer.

the first brand new bike I purchased was a left over ‘95 KX125 for $2999. I remember picking it up at the dealership (Golden Kawasaki Suzuki, Odessa, TX). So sweet!

Congratulations Cool
I thought the PDI/Setup fee we have to pay for buying a new bike at a stealership was supposed to have all that taken care of....are you telling me we pay the PDI fee for nothing other than the tech guys to put handlebars and gas and oil into the bike and pop the bikes cherry before you get to ride it ...thats what that fee covers?

Fyi it was a wee bit sarcastic if a remark bec i used to wor at a dealership in parts and sold bikes for a couple years too.... If only people knew how screwed they were actually getting for that PDI fee or aka "setup" fee lol ....such a joke.

And no you didnt get approved at 20% ....you probably got approved at 8.99% and they mark the interest up THAT MUCH.....like seriously
