anyone have a connection at max bmw?

[drop]

my dad is heading up to MAX BMW in north hampton nh this weekend to buy a K1200GT they've got on the lot. since NESR seems to have friends everywhere, i thought i'd check to see if anyone on here has a connection up there.

so...anyone? thanks!

I kinda have one at the NY store... the thing about BMW though is that you are basically going to pay full price. They put on a lot of free lunches and stuff so thats where the "savings" is.

I saw on ebay a BMW place in IL that said we are not allowed to advertise below MSRP but we can sell it for whatever we want. I gather from that comment they are willing to deal.

Joe at Greater Boston Motorsports/BMW of Cambridge is good and easy to deal with...

Did you buy an 08 Silver 1200 GSA? It was on the showroom floor like 3 weeks ago?

Nice.

What type of rides do you have planned? Any real adv stuff?

If you don't mind, would you PM me the details of your deal you got?

+1 Nic and Secondwind. I've been dealing with these guys for a long time and they've always been great.

Nothing against MAX though, I've had service there a few times and my dad got his K1200S (and before that K1200GT*) from there and was treated pretty well.

There were some great rebates on the "old" '08 K1200 bikes (now that the K1300's have been released). Leftover GT's should have a decent discount.


*my dad couldn't stand that my S was ever so slightly faster than his GT. Six months later, and he really misses the comfort of the GT's riding position/wind protection.

i did a lot of dirt on the tiger last year in ma and vt last year and had a BLAST, but wanted to carry more gear and figured the gsa would be a nice upgrade.

as to rides, i don't currently plan on going to alaska (this year)

i'll stick with ma, vt and a couple of trips to pa.

the bike was below retail and i beat him up a little more and got a very good price on the extended warranty.

if it hasn't sold yet i know where there's another 08, but that dealer dosen't do extended warrantys

i picked up just about everything i wanted from one person on advrider who sold his 07.


if anyone looking for a 05 tiger with around 6k on the clock i have a very nice one that i'll be moving soon.

+1 on Second Wind, not that I've had any problems with stuff I've gotten via MAX's

I've known Rusty the parts manager at Max's since I bought my K100 from Freeman's Cycles in 1985. Unfortunately, I talk to him about once every ten years so I don't think that relationship can be used for a discount... Great guy though.

Like others have already mentioned, I go to Second Wind for my bike. Nothing wrong with Max's, it's just that Second Wind is closer and they've always been really good to work with.
