2009A vs 2007AE

[Fred W]

May I also add that in Arizona, as well perhaps in some other states, you save even more by buying used from a PRIVATE party by not paying sales tax. That's $800 saved on a $10,000 vehicle.

Yeah, I always forget about that whole sales tax angle. Being from the "Live Free or Die" state, we don't pay any sales tax even on new vehicles bought down in Taxachusetts (or any other sales tax collecting state).

I just visited the RideNow in Surprise, AZ. They have an 2007 AE in Black. A guy came into the place wanted a Silver 2009 so they had the dealership swap out the Gray body of the 2007 with the Balck body of 2009. It was Still there on Friday.

As everyone knows, RideNow/Metro Sports SUCK. They are dishonest and do sub-standard work. I would wait and get the bike from somewhere else if you can. I would even consider to go to cycletrader.com and purchase the bike out of state.

I have a Yamaha Vstar. I am just waiting for my Perfered Custome Care Warranty to expire and I will not buy from them.

I've seen enough negative reports about RideNow to believe without doubt that they are substandard. That said, I'm not sure why swapping the bodywork is a bad thing.
