PRE Owner New as they come

[jeremy]

Anyone willing to help me?

I’ve decided to become an owner and enthusiast of the Honda Crosstourer. If I can I’d like to buy it today.  There’s a couple new ones available at dealers here in the upper Midwest, and some low mileage options too. I’m hoping to get a 2017 new for $9K, then accessorize. But if it’s going to be more, I’ll pay it.

 I welcome the chance to get advice and make a friend here, so thank you - I generally wouldn’t join a club that would accept me as a member, but this is an exception. Reach out! -jeremy

Welcome, Jeremy!

Lots of good info here already, and plenty of helpful folks to assist with the items that haven't been addressed.  My experience since buying new (2017 NOS) one year ago is that accessories in the US are getting more difficult to find.  Not surprising, given the short 2-year model run and low sales volume here.  So figure out what farkles you want and get them while you can!   

If I was looking for a bike now, I'd be talking to mzflorida about his 2016 DCT.

Hi Jeremy,well we have a lot more for sale here inc new from dealers - you could look at importing as the usual deal is no VAT for export sales (thats our sales tax at 20%) so you could end up with a deal ,even allowing for shipping costs.Check out ebay.co.uk and bike trader for suitable bikes.Not sure if any spec difference for your country but ask anyone with one you fancy.Because of our Covid lockdown a lot of bikes unused for a while ,and maybe poor owners -so some deals about.Mine is a June 2018 DCT Highlander and cost less than £8000 with 9400 miles .
