Edmunds Motorcycle

Answer 3

Not that I know of.

From my experience, if buying a new MC, no dealer negotiates. If anything they gouge you for over the MSRP. This is particularly true of HD dealers. Same is true of Honda, BMW and Triumph dealers.

Most dealers won't let you take a test drive. You need to wait until they have demo days or go to a motorcycle rally where they offer demo rides. Other alternative is to find someone who will let you ride their bike.

Motorcycles tend be very unique with regard to riding experience. Sport bikes, you lean over on your arms/shoulders all day, bike is very fast, very fun in the curves. Cruiser (Harley or knock off) will be more upright, easier to ride for an extended period, not as fast, but will have a lot more creature comforts (i.e. stereo/saddle bags etc..)
You either like a bike or you don't. With regards to reliability, I think most bikes manufactured today are very reliable - particularly if you don't modify it.

Many people are very religious about their preferred MC, therefore getting an unbiased opinion will be difficult.

Answer 4

Try this site. Very very easy to use. Allows comparisions accross manufacturer lines. www.wantfacts.com Also you can search by features. ie price or cc. I use it all the time and it seems to always be current with the latest data photos and specs.
