It started on 1/12/09 and ends 3/31/09..  This is the first time we have seen a low rate on the 696 models, we have already had a 696 buyer take advantage of it!   You can request a shorter term contract if you qualify for the low rate but not any longer term than 60 at the promo 2.99% rate.

the mini Hypers are selling well right out of the gate here in Seattle and I think they have been well received by dealers and customers around the US so far..  no need for a "buy down" low rate by a manufacturer on a model that is new and selling...   This costs the manufacturer money to offer a 2.99 rate that is well below market rates    M1100's, Streetfighters and the last of the Sport bips were hurt by the slow down in 2009 sales.  I think by including 2010's and the 696 model it will just help prime the pump   

[GLantern]

Sport Bips?  As in Sport Bipostos? As in SBKs?  I'm really confused by that.....

[Drjones]

Sport Classic Bipostos.

Ahhh ok thank you!  Sweet deals!

if you dont mind me asking how much is a 696 at MSRP per month on the 2.99 / 60 month?

Dave's a great guy and I hope he can sell a ton of bikes....for the members I am compelled to say my usual and say financing toys is a very bad idea.  (at 2.99 you can have the money doing better elsewhere, and that's my one caveat, but if you're in that position the extra 15K for the bike isn't going to break a different investment anyway).

I usually agree with you but personally hate when people post this. Its a bit elitist to think that joe worker bee can afford toys like joe lawyer can afford toys. Sure bee can save for 5 years and then pay cash but if his (and sometimes my) prerogative is to finance a bike then so be it. I financed my Hyper 9/08 and have paid less then $550 so far in interest. I'll have it paid off by June (because I throw extra money at it) and have been able to enjoy it for the past year and a half by paying the $39 a month money rental fee (interest). I bet you spend more on coffee. I don't drink coffee.

two things:

1) 2.99 doesn't say 'financing' in the same way 8 or even 6 has said financing in the past, so while I would normally say "gotta save up for a toy," this does raise my eyebrows.

2) the vast majority of lawyers make under $100k.

It's a DAMN good thing there isn't a 2.99 on the new multi 1200s.... else I might be going back into debit!
