Call kawa and ask them. If no good answer then just make the best deal and go on the g5 if that's the bike of your choice.
theres a dealer near me that has a 15 still in stock no miles on it going for like 10 or so maybe even less. IN VA BEACH if anyone is looking. should still be there but could be wrongBuy a new bike when they first come out is pure dumb! Dealers are slowing reducing prices on all 16's cuz they want them outta there so they can get their 17 order in to the manufacturers soon as possible. I drove 5hrs to Virginia to get my 16 10R. It was the last one in their inventory and the owner of the dealership offered to take off $5500 off the MSRP and that the deal was good for 24hrs. He wanted that bike gone! Needless to say, I left work immediately and went straight to the bank, and the next morning I was on the road to get it. Some dealers don't need to make a dime off you at the end of the year cuz they profited so much of bike sales all year long from those who paid full price (owner of dealership told me that). The MSRP markup on a new bike is retarded and having patience and holding out to buy at the end of year can save you thousands!!!
I Called dealer and they have nothing in stock ... they can order one in and give me 500 bucks off list. Not much of a deal or wait until 17's come out and see what then? :dontknow:Call kawa and ask them. If no good answer then just make the best deal and go on the g5 if that's the bike of your choice.

Hi, thanks for the info ...
That's what I been thinking ( just waiting) but Ima excited to get a new bike now since I crashed my gen 3 and I ride year round ... (as long not snowing lol) ...
Local Kawasaki has nothing in stock - I almost bought at 15 they had there with 1000km for 11.5k cad (9k us)... but I figure to sort it out with all the goodies I had on my gen 3 it would cost same as gen 5....
Also up here in Canada list price is 18k...I maybe be able to get one for 17k now but it won't go as low as 13k us - idk
Anyways so I don't know what savings there will be waiting till December if they have none left in Bc ?:dontknow:
Wondering what y'all think of the possible savings in cost from the outgoing 16s to the new 17's coming in anybody know on average what the rebate might be ? Ima wanting to pick one up now but worried the 17s might drop the 16 price if I don't wait and I will lose out on a nice discount .
thanks in advance for any feedback, cheers
