Default 2 New 2016 Bikes At My Local Dealer

Question: what would you consider a reasonable offer on these 2 brand new "leftover" 2016 bikes.
I'm not in the market for either one of them, but a friend and I were discussing what the dealer would have to do to move these 2 bikes.

Both of those bikes each cost more than the price of my 2016 Mazda CX-5.....just sayin'.

I bought my Slim as a left over bike and got a great price, that being said it took three visits to the dealer to do it.

High Blue Book minus any "extra" fees the dealer wants to add on, other than taxes and tags.

They are 3 yr old bikes, price accordingly.
I think these are called wallflowers in the dealer trade. I wonder what the flooring costs are for the dealer. Each will need a service and a new battery before sale.

Impossible to say. Only someone in earnest offering a firm deal could find out. My experience is that every dealer is different. Depends on the individual dealer's overhead, left over inventory he's still paying interest on, etc. I've made offers and was refused, then a couple of months later got a call asking if I was still interested .......

This website http://www.seedealercost.com/ doesn't have the 2016, but does have the 2017 CVO Pro Street Breakout and gives dealer invoice as $20,639. Dunno what dealer cost for the '16 is, but I'd start right around there. (Dealer cost for the '16.)

Seems they aren't coming down on the price, considering they're still sitting there all this time.
