Trading ol blue for ABS
It has been a great 15,000 miles but if all goes as planned, I'll be trading in my blue 250 for a new ABS tomorrow.
I've already removed the Corbin seat, rear seat cowl, ZG Double Bubble, LED tail light and put the stock rear fender back on. They aren't budging on MSRP since they haven't even taken it out of the crate. No special deals but at least I'll have one.

Oh very nice!
If it doesn't go according to plan...you keep the money/bike and the dealer doesn't make any money, which would be more of a loss for them. Maybe you could add to the list of items from the 250 that could be put onto the 300. What made you want to go from the 250 to the 300? |

I had a inquiry to my local kawi dealer about 6 months ago, that I was interested in the 300 with ABS. I got a call today, that they received five of them.

Yep. Picked it up over in Dover. <---fun to say.
It was the closest and I'd been talking to the guy since Monday. I rode over the bridge on the 250 and took the ferry back on the 300. The salesman even let me swap the stem nuts so I could have my black one on the new bike! Just got home and took the reflectors off.
