The goal Bruce, is to have the bike. Price is a mere incidental. In a year or two, the price will be meaningless.

Back in January he quoted me $12,900 OTD (I think). The funny thing is if it was any color besides red I would be the owner of an S2R right now. Yellow is the faster color BTWHigh_Side wrote:Interesting how every other dealer has them......and my deposit is long since gone..... Did you catch a price on those ones in Ottawa?Gatineau_Guy wrote:The dealer here in Ottawa has a couple red ones sitting in the show room.

Ouch, that price is pretty steep! But why didn't you just buy the yellow S2R? They have had them sitting in Sport Cycle for a couple of weeks now...... I might just go down and check out that MV today. It's supposed to be 22 deg and it's a great excuse for a ride....Gatineau_Guy wrote:Back in January he quoted me $12,900 OTD (I think).

The salesman only wanted to deal on bikes he had in stock (all red). I didn't realize that they had yellow S2Rs. My wife has never ridden before and I didn't want to make the jump to an S2R (I know it isn't a big jump but the 620 was pushing the limit of a beginner bike as it was, she is 6 feet tall and able to flat foot it so I am not to worried about the 620). I will be posting a review of my bike soon. Stupid graduated systemHigh_Side wrote:Ouch, that price is pretty steep! But why didn't you just buy the yellow S2R?
