Did your dealer match the MSRP on Zero's website?

What will be the overall cost of your bike after sales tax/registrations?

[Zoom]

Your local dealer is probably going to charge exactly MSRP.  I wouldn't expect much wiggle room, unless you're buying a demo bike.  In CA, my premium SR/F was a bit over 24k OTD.

I ordered my Premium in March. Paid $22,772.55 out the door in Texas.

Same here, had to pay MSRP. 

Don't have the exact figures for taxes/registration but it seems the confirmation you are looking for is if other dealers are negotiating.

Premium $22,100 OTD North Carolina.

I got a 1000€ discount on MSRP (22690) in germany and my dealer does the first service with motor calibration for free. No additional shipping costs.

I ended up paying the MSRP + a discounted freight setup fee of $500 + tax - Law enforcement discount of $1000.  I did registration work myself and saved that.   Seems like all the dealers I spoke to was charging MSRP and the only negotiable was freight/setup.

Damn dude, this is sweet.  kudos!  I tried to haggle but was unsuccessful.

The dealer I bought from, HVC Cycle in Lincoln, NE currently has them on sale with two in stock.
I paid MSRP for mine, but that was expected since I ordered early.

If you can find any demo models in the US, they received a $1250 incentive after August 15th.

Having worked in sales at most of my local dealers, I have a really hard time spending money on freight, prep, doc fees and such, I sold on average, 28 bikes/atv's a month and usually discounted units 5-7% and only charged a $99 doc fee which included a tag or off road stickers (TDS) for TN residents, all these dealers have been in business since the 70's and still do quite well.  No way I'm paying retail for anything then another grand on top for junk fees.   I'd buy a new non-demo base for 18k out the door and pay my own taxes when I register it in my state, unlikely to ever happen but that's what it'd take.  I'd like to add that my local KTM shop sold Zero with no fees at all other than tax and tag, they probably even discounted the bikes in an effort to move them, they still dropped them, imo, dealers and the manufacturer are gonna have to get more aggressive on pricing to get these bikes on the road in any volume.

Here is a question for SR/F owners.  What is Zero recommending for the front and rear tire pressures on the new model?

My 2012 S called for 30 psi in both tires, while my 2014 and 2018 S calls for 34 psi.  To me those pressures always seemed a bit low, considering the maximum gross vehicle weight for both bikes.  Most ICE bikes that weight around 450-500 pounds, running tubeless radial tires, recommend 36 psi front and 42 psi rear.

36 front and back on the SR/F.  The manual is actually available online if you're curious about other stuff like that.

Funny story: My bike was feeling a little squirmy, and it dawned on me that I hadn't checked the pressure since I took delivery about 2 weeks prior.  Gave it a check and, surprise, I found my rear tire was dangerously low.  In less than 500 miles I'd managed to get a slow leak courtesy of some random ass piece of metal in the road.
