Robert,
I paid $CDN 14,000 for a blue '00 ST with the panniers included, but not the
top case. The dealer (McBride's Cycle in Toronto) quoted me $400 to add the
top case at a later date. The price you were quoted seems severely
inflated. Price without the panniers was $13,000. These prices are both
$900 off list.
Contact me off-line if you would like more details.
Regards,
Paul Wilson
Toronto
