Hi All,
I've been considering an NC700X DCT ABS as my first motorcycle. I've had my full license since passing MSF back in April, and I have all the gear for safe riding, just no bike.
I put the purchase off to pay down some debt over the summer and to research other bikes.
There's a dealer around here who has a 2014 in stock, and I'm tempted to purchase it right now as opposed to waiting until April for the new 2016 at MSRP.
What would be an acceptable price for a model that is now effectively two years old?
Due to the weather and snow here, I won't be able to ride it for more than a week or two if I buy it this week. And I'd have to insure it for many months extra.
Is there any appreciable difference between the 2014 and the 2016 that would justify waiting and paying more?
I know the 2016 has three S modes and maybe a better exhaust and windscreen, all of which I could do without if I could save thousands.
Thoughts? Thanks in advance!
