On a few dealer lists for a Green CT. Got first call last week. Wouldn't budge @ $5800 out the door! ouch
Gonna wait and see.
In what state do you live, and who was the $5800 OTD Dealer.. That sounds like Honda of Melbourne, Florida, same OTD there. I turned it down as well. In the end I'll save $800, but I will have to wait a month or two to get one at my local dealer. If everyone keeps paying the $800 extra in mystery fees, it will never stop.

I found an honest dealer, $4,600 OTD, should be here this month. 700 miles on my 2022 I got on 4/12, so I like to ride these lil bikes. vintagegarage make some more videos, those are good entertainment. Loved the Chaing Mai ride, wished I had been there too.

Backwoods.. thanks for the kind words. In what state do you live.. I'm just keeping track of OTD prices. $4,600 OTD is better than the best OTD price in Florida. I bought one yesterday at my local dealer, but like you, I don't know when it will come in. Could be a month or more base on past history.

I paid less that 4600 including 6% sales tax , lic plate, and registration last month for my 22 in Ky. Florida isn't $1200 far.

I’m at $5042 out the door; tax, title, and fees. Have to go over a state and 53 miles to go get it, but much better than the dealer in my hometown that wants $6,100 out the door with a $1000 “setup” fee. Ridiculous on their part.

Meanwhile the dealer I’m buying from has a $250 setup fee. Much more reasonable but still high.

**Posted this in another thread by accident, works better here.

Hello! Just Joined Today Your Forum. Thanks for having me!
Tomorrows a BIG Day. I'm taking delivery of my 2023 Trail 125. I contacted the Dealer in April (walk-in) met the sales
manager and told him I wanted a '23 Model. Even though the dealership had two 2022 model Trail 125's on the floor.
My reasons for wanting the '23 was the new design engine and the green pearl paint. I currently own a 2019 Monkey
w/ABS, Red color. I live near Houston TX.
I got the call from the dealer last saturday they had just received a 2023 Trail 125. Price was non-negotiable $5500 OTD.
Life is short, You know the rest......

What State did you buy in? I assume the price didn't include sales tax, title and registration? If that is true, how much did that add to the price. If it is not true, you got the best deal in the country.

Thank You! Based on reading many others purchasing these bikes, I wasn't expecting to get one at a
bargain price. I have no regrets. My dealer so far has been top notch.

Sorry, NC & it included everything tax, title, temp tag. I think added fees totaled between MSRP plus shipping plus assembly/prep etc. up to $4500.
I've been on a waiting list couple places for a year. They have a new 2022 they offered earlier but I said I would wait for the 23s now that they were out.
Actually I was shocked when they called and said they had their 1st 2023 and I was top of the list about 3-4 weeks later. Recovering from surgery so all I can do it look at it :(

Picked up the Trail 125 today at the dealer. Sales guy said there were many people wanting to buy it since I committed to purchase on Saturday.
Drove it home taking the scenic route. First 25 miles. Gotta say I grabbed for an imaginary clutch lever MANY times. The seat is much harder than I
expected. And the heel shifter will need some.... "adjustment". No regrets, It's gonna be fun modding it up!

I find my foot in a better position for the heel shifter once I removed the rubber isolators in the footpegs. It is also better with flat-soled shoes than my regular boots with a heel. One of my other bikes also has a heel shifter and this one is positioned much better.

My 23' is supposed to arrive sometime next week. Dealer says it's been released from hold, just gotta wait for the truck to show up. Can't wait.

In what state, province, or prefecture do you live? Please take a second to update your profile.. thanks. I am envious of you and keep waiting to hear from my local dealer in Florida.

I’m in Eastern Washington and was told by two different Honda dealers earlier in May that about 10 people were in line and it would probably be 6-12 month wait for a Trail125. Then one of the dealers called me a day later and asked if I was still willing to put a deposit down for a bike shipping in June and arriving in Jul. My bike showed up a few days ago and I picked it up on Friday. While I was at the dealership I asked when he expected another Trail125 to come in and he said Sep but he’d take my deposit the following week to lock it in for me.

They are charging $5585 OTD per Trail125. Included in that $5585 was $650 in “assembly and doc” fees, which apparently got me to the front of the line.

Totally worth it to me because this bike is awesome and I’m already having fun with it. Im buying the second one for my wife.
