After striking out a few times trying to pick up an '08, I picked up a Red '09 for $3999 ($4049 OTD after a $50 "documentation" fee). Like others have suggested, keep looking around. I checked several dealers before finding the shop I ultimately bought it from, and most had $240-500 worth of markup on the '09 250r's.
The shop I bought it from is roughly an hour away, roughly the same distance as all the others I looked at. There's a motorcycle dealer about a half mile from my house, but they turned in all their Kawasaki inventory a couple weeks before I decided to buy new (they no longer sell Kawasaki).
