What's the RRP going to be, "on road"?
Also, whats a ballpark figure on a trade in on my 05 with 12k km's on it. (Feel free to PM me regarding any details)
Wanna find out if it's worth my time and effort, or I head down to Race Rep and see if I can wrangle me a deal.

I dont think you are being rude. What to you constitutes a good deal? That offer was to see what kind of reaction we would get and to act accordinglyttc wrote:Yes, can I have your left testicle.. please don't think I'm being rude but I don't think that is that good of a deal.

RRP on road in NSW is $20,612. Would we be able to inspect your '05? We always need good used bikes and can certainly make it worth your while to come and visitBenno wrote:What's the RRP going to be, "on road"?

FYI - We will be getting 4 bikes in Feb. - 3 x Green and 1 x Red. Three bikes in Mar. - 2 x Green, 1 x Red and then 1 x Green in April. First in with deposits gets the bikes. If you want to wait til mid next year then we may be more flexible on the price as more units become available

Well it seems that the group discount thing didn't go the way anyone expected, including us! I would like to hear from members about what they look for when they are shopping for a new bike. This is an opportunity for us to learn as a dealer (so we can help you better), and for you to voice your opinions about how every dealer can improve their service.

I met your boss at the world supers earlier this year (or some event at P.I.) and he was quite adament he didn't want anything to do with KSRC, not even sure if he knew who we were.JohnnyO wrote:Hey all you Melbourne buyers, come and see me at Cosway's in Elizabeth Street, I will definately give you a fantastic price, no bull.

"Full of ppl wanting discounts" or something similar was his comment....
Strange, as I have never asked him for anything or for him to be involved with the site, I was just introduced to him (by Paul Seaton) as the guy who runs KSRC, and that was his comment...

Re: 08 ZX10R - Don't buy one until you read this.
Here is my Statement of the Year
Cosways Are Not My favourite dealer and never have been
Its great they don't want to deal with us because I personally wouldn't recommend dealing with them.
My reasons stem back to 10 years ago and I have tried them again as little as 2 months ago - no mention of KSRC at all. I wouldn't trust em with a Moped and wouldnt even buy an 08 zx10 for $5000.
Thats my vent
Stuff em!
Edited by MadKaw... we don't want any liable... as per site guidelines...

Well "Service" is the word. To be serviced is something different.Flywheels MC wrote:Well it seems that the group discount thing didn't go the way anyone expected, including us!

Well I'm at Cosway's now, trust me, things WILL be different in the future. I have been racing and working in the motorcycle industry for over 30 years, I love motorcycles and motorcycle riders are my friends, if you want a bike from Cosway, you talk to me. Spares, workshop and accessory sales will be changing soon, I'll let you know the details soon.
