I think we are all as excited as each other that one of us, or more indeed, has been given the green light for a new bike ... I wonder if other sites and members would get the same results ??  :nono: :nono: I think is the answer !

For that price it's worth getting the green one and having it resprayed a decent colour

Cheers Roger, good to see you and your awesome 750 triple at the show, really enjoyable weekend,good show and cracking ride home via A701 to Moffat then peeled off the M6 at Penrith onto the A6 over Shap fell down to Kendal, brilliant start to the season!! Looking forward to hearing the 750's distinctive sound sometime, I would'nt mind choking on the blue smoke a little bit just to hear it howl!!!!!!!

Just got in from work a short while ago, I'll ring Robinsons when I get up.

I dont know what the crack is these days with sales and sales staff but I called Robinsons first thing this morning, they thought the bike had been sold but couldnt confirm that, they said they'd have to call me back, I said I'd hold but apparently no they'd call me back. They haven't done yet. Am I going about buying a new bike the wrong way or something, have tactics changed in the last couple of years?

I always thought you enquired, you were provided with info, you made a decision, you bought, (or not). Its like these dealers aren't arsed if they sell or not.

Ah yes....welcome to the new world :no: the list of dealers i wouldn't buy a bike from is fairly long now, half the time the sales staff can't be bothered to pull 'em selfs away from updating Twitface and the rest it's the sales staff that are ok but the aftersale care is shocking, and they wonder why dealers are going down the pan every five mins.

the best dealer round my way is the BMW dealer in Hertford, my other half is looking to change her bandit later this year, and she rather fancies a K1300, popped in the BMW dealers, they had loads of time to chat, great product knowledge and also have arranged for her to have a demo for the whole weekend!!! now that's what i call a test ride  :gunsmilie:
She is like the Bumblebee, she should not fly....... and yet she does!

Oh dear!   whatever problems I might have had with my K12, BMW salesmen have always been great and, yes, generous with loan bikes.

So, I am sensing that the Kawasaki guys will not offer quite the same experience. 

Is this a generally held view?
Just because many do it does not make it right. Just because many think it does not make it true.

Never had a problem with my dealer and they've always been generous with loan bikes
