A bit of a long shot, but does anyone have a handle on what discounts should be available from Motorrad dealers in the U.K. on a new bike purchased before the end of this month/current quarter? I am on the brink of buying an R1200 RS Sport and any such intelligence would be great before I engage with the dealer. Thank you.

It's very variable. At the end of last year/start of this year Cooper BMW in Sunderland had a batch of R1200RS with about 10% off. I think they were all pre-registered with nominal miles (less than 20), and once they were gone there was little or no discount available.
You may have better luck getting some sort of discount built into a finance package.

Or get some extras thrown in:

I paid for the cruise on mine, the dealer paid for the alarm & 1st service - it was a bike already in stock though, unregistered etc, saved them getting a lesser spec one in.

And the answer appears to be 10%!

I got that off mine, in fact I think it was 12% when extras were included.

Automatic 10% off RRP at Bahnstormer if you mention BVG / 44Teeth IIRC.

I think a mate of mine got even more than that off a new 1200GS last summer just by negotiating with them.

I'll take an R9T on finance if you're price is good.

I like to help out where I can.

BMW Oxford had money off and 0% across their heritage range recently, might be worth a phone call. They have a German sausage van there tomorrow too...

BMW Wollaston took 10% off for me and dropped the PCP APR from 9.9 to 5.8% on my S1000R the last few days of June...

I also asked for free fitting on some accessories I bought and a free first service, which they did and they've just done the same for my Dad who bought a G310R from them last week, not such big numbers on the little bike but we got £300 off it and the free service and free delivery etc.

Not sure I like German sausage enough to drive the 700 mile round trip for some.

I'll give them a call about that deal as they are all quoting the same 7.9% and no contribution. If one of the dealers chucked in a discount I'd be seriously tempted and if it was 0% I'd take 2.

Recently walked past, it looks like £1850 contribution but only with finance at 7.9%.

I had a sausage or two, excellent. Also excellent was the £2k up to £3.5k, dependent on model, off all their heritage bikes, the RnineT, a new scrambler was around £8k. Other offers too.
