I paid ~$9500 OTD towards the beginning of the year. Don't get overly anxious, look around everywhere you can. If you have to, you can always buy it out of state and have it shipped.

Wow, you got a really good deal on that service plan. I checked in both Georgia and Tennessee and the maximum service plan I could find was three years. I have three friends that work at motorcycle dealerships and they were telling me that it's all up to the dealership, not yamaha, to decide the service plan price. Some include different things with theirs (more or less), however, they are all banking on you not using it to its full potential because if you do (even a 3 yr service plan @ $1800), it truly costs the dealership money.
A lot of people buy bikes, park them in their garage and don't take them out but a couple times a year. These are the type of people they make a lot of money extra from. Anyway, sorry to carry on, just wanted to know how great of deal you really got.
Oh and riderr69, also factor in gap insurance, insurance, safety course, and drivers license charges. I'm not sure if it's like this everywhere, but here, they charged me the first two months payments on insurance right then and there. Gap insurance is good for if you are financing the bike, they cover what ever insurance doesn't in case something was to happen to your bike. The safety course is between $95 (advanced class - 1 day with your own bike) to $180 (beginner class - 3 days with their bikes). The insurance all depends on your age, driving record, experience, and type of coverage. The drivers license here was about $26.
