Like regular cornflakes, but a bit more salty :)

I don't like blackfoot too much either cuz their prices are sky high, but they do have a rather nice showroom where you can go to look at and sit on bikes of your dreams...

Next time I'm in Calgary you can take me, and we'll harass the sales people, spend 4 hours dickering over a bike I don't want. Be about to sign the papers, and walk out.

How do their Rice Crispies taste now??!!

Actually, I don't do bitter. I vote with my wallet on how I like my customer service and they have won a few and lost a few. I have even moved on after they tried to fix a price on me with another dealer in town back in '93, to the point that I am shopping there again. The guy that did the dirty work was recently squeezed out by his partners which I should recognize as a positive move. They knew he was slime as much as I did. One bad employee can destroy a lot of buisiness in a short period of time....

I walked when Scona tried price fixing me, I still buy some accessories there if I cannot find them anywhere else.

Still you have to admit it'd be fun. I REALLY want a CBR600RR... lol

They pissed in my corn-flakes back in '93 so I really should have gotten over that by now.... :P They have a hellova lotta bikes as well as accessories so it really is worth a trip down there at least to see it. Have a look at www.blackfootmotorsports.com
Thanks High_Side - so why the extra grand? Do they come up w. BS service fees and paperwork fees? I plan on going to Calgary anyway so I will have to stop by and have a peek at what they offer. :)

PDI + Freight + :laughing: administration fee :laughing: I told them I would deduct it from my finders fee for locating the bike :laughing: It doesn't really matter what they call it: Out the door on a new SV650 is within $5 at three different dealers in town. It's the advertised price that varies....
