well, i paid 10,500 for mine. out the door it was 10,900 tags, title and taxes included. i got mine on april 6 th. i believe it was the first one sold to the general public. (i happen to work for the trucking co that ships for the warehouse in n.j.) anyway, it is just a great bike and i was happy to pay that price for it. i see that some got away with better pricing, and i commend you on your luck. dont' think now that it's out it will be so easy to find any deals. dealers know that someone will buy it and that soon, kaw or hon will come out with something that'll run with it and we'll be back to "mine's faster than yours" crap. until then, be happy, ride fun and enjoy
