These appear to be coming almost completely assembled; even the wheels are already in place. |
That's pretty much how my '08 came, took it out of the crate myself. Just had to install windscreen, handle bars, battery, seat and side panels (had dealer charge the battery day before); a little gas and vroom. Saved myself a couple hundred bucks doing the PDI myself.
Was kind of expecting it to be in more pieces. When I used to stop by one of the bike shops back in the '80's, he would let us help put together the new bikes and quads. there was a LOT more assembly back then. Could take you all day to put a bike together, Now... I was done and out the door in like a hour.
