I've got a request for quote in to LA Yamaha right now. Every other local dealer is holding firm on MSRP (went with PDP cash to Lebard & U, Bert's, Long Beach, Bellflower, amd Hahm).

I really don't understand their reasoning. After they know that I know what pricing has been offered in CA, and who's offering it, seems like they're turning away good money (mine). At each dealer I tell them I don't expect the best pricing in CA, just within maybe $500 of it. "Nope, WE'RE moving these at at MSRP..."

I am more than ready to join your brand-fraternity. This could be my soul-mate bike. The technical support on the net exceeds most other breeds (I can't help but notice Warchild is an exceptional contributor). Of course it is the bike that is selling me. If nobody got better than MSRP I would willingly pay it but assuming at least half of you are honest :) I'd be a fool to do so.
