Discount for cash

:doh:
Sorry to post this a second time but this formum might be a better place to ask the question.

Moved here from the UK (married a kiwi) and being Scottish I have never paid full price for a new bike but I am not quite sure how things work here.

Looking to buy a GXR750 or CB600RR. In the UK would expect about 10-15% for a hard haggle. Does anyone have some experience with dealers here do they discount?

Just get on the phone and ask the question of each shop you call. I wish you luck (although personally I agree - money talks, bullshit walks)

i gerally add 20% to prices, so yeh i think if you make an offer - the worst they can say is no. 10% shouldnt be a problem

You may pick up a deal on a new 04 model with 05 models due anytime.

Welcome to NZ and welcome aboard Kiwibiker.
Some dealers will "negoiate" and others wont. Usually depends on what you are buying - they would be more flexible with used bikes rather than new. If buying privately then it is normal to offer a bit less than what the seller is asking if you have cash.
But no harm in 'trying it on' any situation and see how you go. Good luck.
