Hey all, I have been saving up for a while for my XB12R and have a couple grand to throw down on one. I was wondering if you guys had a preference to dealers in California Bay area. Tom | ||

Y'know you might consider talking to Buelldyno_guy Terry knows the good and the bad about most of the dealers in the area. Of course, if you come to So CA, I can always hook you up with Glendale....  (Message edited by slaughter on June 08, 2007) | ||

I have no idea about the dealers in the Bay Area. Maybe local Buellers can chime in. But keep this in mind, a good start on Buell ownership is to buy it from a fun dealer. I'm with Slaughter, Glendale will ensure it is a pleasant experience. And just imagine the maiden ride on HWY 1 on the way home! What better way to break in a bike. | ||

i seroiusly got chills and a giant grin on my face when you mentioned the maiden ride home. hehe when time comes ill look into glendale. im going to finish finding my new apartment and get settled first. that will give me time to save up a bigger downpayment also. Tom | ||

At Glendale, you will want to contact Ernie Snair (sales). He's an enthusiast. And two of the parts guys are Buell riders too. And... most important of all... Have fun Asbjorn | ||

I'm in the Bay Area and a year ago when I got my Ss, I ended up going down to Simi Valley to get mine after checking around all over here. Couldn't even find one up here for list. They had what I wanted for a great price and Andy was easy to deal with. | ||

I got mine from Peninsula Harley-Davidson in Redwood City. They have a good sales and parts department, the Service department needs work. The bike broke a valve spring, the bike was just about of warranty and couldn’t be ridden. I was told that couldn’t take the bike in for a month, and once the appointed date did come around I brought it to them and they began waffling on the warranty. They told me that the diagnostic charges would be my responsibility IF they decided I somehow abused the bike. Eventually they decided it was a factory defect and did the repairs, and the work was good, but the time required was almost 7 weeks before I got the bike back from them. That’s almost three months the bike wasn’t running. You would think if a customer who bought the bike there had a warranty issue they would try to resolve it a bit faster. | ||

Check out Ebay first. I couldn't disagree more. The only way I'd buy a bike this way was if the bike was local and I could go check it out first. | ||

yeah i dont want to inherit someone elses problems which is kinda why i was looking at buying new.i hear some of the dealers around here slash prices come winter time so i think i might wait till then and get an 08 i guess i can wait... lol ive waited this long whats another couple months and pluss the bigger downpayment i have the lower the payments. |
