RDawson Posted August 30, 2018 #1 Posted August 30, 2018 Dealer in NY on eBay. 2018 SVTC 21k. https://m.ebay.com/itm/2018-Yamaha-Venture/232904385610?hash=item363a2ee44a:g:XLUAAOSwM~RbgXia
Freebird Posted August 30, 2018 #2 Posted August 30, 2018 I bought it 10 minutes ago. Not through Ebay. Went direct to the dealer. I pick it up tomorrow afternoon.
bongobobny Posted August 30, 2018 #3 Posted August 30, 2018 Ya gonna stop in on the way through?? Don Weaver Motorsports is a decent enough dealer, and I doubt Pioneer could have matched that price...
Freebird Posted August 30, 2018 #4 Posted August 30, 2018 Well, I would have liked to have purchased from Pioneer but for one thing, they don't have one. It was just too good a deal to pass up. I won't be taking back to NY for service anyway. Don't know if I'll be able to stop by or not. It will be at least mid afternoon before I get there and get it all done. Then have to ride back home. Will be a long day. Can't leave here until at least 9:00. They said that because I'm from out of state, they would prefer a bank check and my bank doesn't open until 9:00.
bongobobny Posted August 30, 2018 #5 Posted August 30, 2018 Well, if you would like to have dinner and like BBQ (most likely the best around) I know a place that is just minutes from I90 in Orchard Park/Blasdell. Heck, I'll even buy!!! You can call using my home phone...
Freebird Posted August 30, 2018 #6 Posted August 30, 2018 Well, let me see what time I get there. It it's not too short of notice, I'll call you from the dealership.
bongobobny Posted August 31, 2018 #7 Posted August 31, 2018 Deal! I'll be here, and I'll try to rouse Big Tom as well! The place is BW Barbeque on Lake Avenue near Abbot Road. http://www.bwbbq.com/
Freebird Posted August 31, 2018 #8 Posted August 31, 2018 OK...sounds good. I would like to do it if at all possible.
WRIDR Posted August 31, 2018 #10 Posted August 31, 2018 Don: Dunno if the same rules 'n regs apply down there, BUT... when we bought a vehicle last year we left EARLY, to drive to the dealership, THEN headed to the nearest compatible Bank which could/would give us a Bank Draft for the total amount (Less Trade in, but still over $30,000). That would get you away a LOT earlier in the day. Hope this might help. Rgds, WRIDR.
ChiefGunner Posted August 31, 2018 #11 Posted August 31, 2018 I bought it 10 minutes ago. Not through Ebay. Went direct to the dealer. I pick it up tomorrow afternoon. LOL! And here Don I didn’t think you were in the market or gonna get one?! Well, CONGRATS! What color did you get? You also said you hadn’t had a chance to test ride one yet. 😁. Sometimes “ya just KNOW”. Post pics when you get it!

My bank opens at 9:00 and it's only a 3 hour and 45 minute drive to the dealership outside of Buffalo. I should get there around one or two. I actually traded in the Slingshot and it was paid for so I am well under 10,000 out of pocket. I asked them if they would just take a personal check and they didn't say no but said that they would prefer a bank check since I was out of state. It's no big deal.

You also said you hadn’t had a chance to test ride one yet. 😁. Sometimes “ya just KNOW”. Post pics when you get it! Well, I'm no stranger to the V-Twins. My last was a 2013 Road Glide Ultra that I bought brand new. I have to tell you, it wasn't a slam dunk decision. I was back and forth all day yesterday between the new SVTC and another Harley. I had a guy here locally wanting to trade me a 2012 Harley Ultra Classic with 15,000 miles on it and he was adding some cash as well. Trading for my Slingshot. I came very close to pulling that trigger instead. I kept thinking about all the extra features that I would be giving up though. That and the fact that my '13 Ultra Glide wasn't just a little hot but it was BRUTALLY hot. That was actually the only thing that I didn't like about it. Then there was my wife telling me, you know you DO run a Venture forum. So............ back to the point.......the way I ride now really goes well with the low RPM torque of the V-Twins. If I get there today and for any reason at all, this deal falls through, I will have to start over with the decision making process. I don't expect anything to go wrong though.

Forgive me brother = I am TERRIBLE with breviatioinal stuff,, took Yammer Dan 2 years to get me taught that CTFW meant Chasing The Front Wheel
cowpuc Posted September 1, 2018 #25 Posted September 1, 2018 Oppsss,,, dahhhh,,, bet your talking about a Voltage Regulator/Rectifier Snype,,, sometime my brain amazes me with how slow it is... I think it was somehow thinking we were still talking about Ebaying for the new Venture and it doesnt switch gears to fast anymore (think I got a worn out detent roller or something LOL).. Anyway,,, I am still using OEM stuff.. I have swapped on parts from my parts bikes and grab junk parts too when ever I see em at our scrap yard... Not sure that I would sink to much into a used one on Ebay if it was me.. I think they are available aftermarket fairly reasonable just have no experience with any of them..
