I agree - last year this bike was going for a lot less - however they were probably in much worse shape.
My advise - go to www.hulu.com, watch a couple of episodes of Pawn Stars and walk in with $1,000 in one pocket, $200 in the other two and $100 in your wallet. Pull out the $1,000 (in hundreds), fan them out and offer $1,000 - don't flinch and just hold the $ up until they react. Do your best imitation of Rick from Pawn Stars and work from there by pulling out the $200 or $100 depending on the counter offer. The $100 in your wallet should be a $50, 2 $20's and 2 $5's. You want to be able to give them exact change. When I bought my bike he was asking $2,700. I pulled out $2,000 in hundreds made the offer and held them up, he stared at them for about 2 minutes said "You're a tough negotiator" and took the money out of my hand. Good luck - it should be fun.
