Maybe it is a bad thing to buy a first year production model as the prices fluctuate greatly after that. It may be that this bike will retail for $15-16,000.00 new in the future. Can't hardly give my bike away so I'm going to have to keep it for at least another year.
Prices on the new 2015s will keep going up while prices of used ones will continue to go down. That's just how it works. Bikes depreciate in value. Most vehicles lose 30% of their value as soon as you ride/drive off the dealers lot.
A lot of folks paid less for a new leftover 2013 than what you're asking for your used one which is why you're having trouble selling it. You"ll never get all your money back on accesories. You're better off taking them off the bike and selling them separately and you'll get about 50% of your money back that you spent on them. Then, drop the price of your bike at least $1000 - $2000 below what the leftover 13s sold for and you'll have a better chance of selling it. You're still competing with the new leftover 13s that the dealers have and pretty soon the 14s will be getting heavily disounted too.
Since you didn't say whether you had a deluxe model or not I checked both models on KBB.com. The dealers I have talked to about trading my current bike have all used KBB to value trades. So, the base F6B trade-in on KBB is $11,075 and the deluxe is $11,850. They are way low on their offer. You might want to try another stealer.
Snow is predicted in Denver Friday. In climates such as ours, seasonality greatly impacts pricing -- especially for smaller dealers who can't afford a lot of dead inventory over the winter months. Since the 2015 models are still a few months out -- closer to spring, the story might be somewhat different at that juncture.
its not a factor,they offered to put it on consignment but i have done this before,with new 2013s still for sale at 13 k why would any one buy it??
anyways,we all new this going in and yes i checked kelly blue book and i have a deLuxe
i am going with a mc cruise and an oem 2015 throttle housing...
and keep my money in the bank..lets see if this is really a 300 k bike
Sometimes, taking a bike back to where you bought it as a trade in has it's benefits. The Dealer can pull up how much he made on you the first time, and kind of 'take that into account' during the deal on the new one.
If you take it elsewhere, it's just another used bike.
In my case, Cruise is a non-issue. I have cruise in my RAM and even after trailering to Franklin and back,,, 2000 mile's,,,, it proved to be more of a PITA than a help,,, I guess it would be OK if you were slow as mud, but I'm at/above the speed limit and there's just too much traffic to REALLY use cruise for any extended amount of time,,,
AH HA!!!! :idea: Now I get it!!!
I bet all you guys who are :tissue: about cruise are the same the ones that poke along doin 50 in a 70, bitchin that all the cars that are passin ya are all driving like madmen!!! :cus: :old: :furious:
:stirthepot: :poke:
The Canadian specs for the '15 F6B are now up on the Honda Canada website.
Again, we do not have base and deluxe models, only one model.
Yes, cruise has been added as standard equipment on our only model.
And yes, ABS is still standard on our only model. Our colour choices are the same as in the US. Price is also TBD later.
The bummer is still if we want all those accessories that come on the US Deluxe version, we have to pay the outrageous Canadian accessory prices, or cross border shop.
