Hi folks, new UKGSER user here...
After many years of admiring the GS`s i bought an older Hexhead earlier this year to try out.
I didn`t like it...... i loved it!
In fact, i liked it so much i now have a new 1250GSA TE on order to be delivered either late this year or early next (delay due to suspension factory being shut down due to floods apparently..)
Anyway, the reason for this enquiry is as follows: after ordering the bike and agreeing on price/spec etc i was given the invoice. A bit spendy but there you go, i did get some `free` options included in the deal.......
A few days later i received a further invoice via email from the admin folk at the dealers to which had been added the SOS emergency call option (+£300).
After enquiring as to why this had been added when i hadn`t even discussed or considered it i was told that `all GS`s from now on will have that option fitted`....
Is this correct, or have i been the unwitting victim of a cunning plan by the salesfolk to regain some of the margin they lost when i insisted on the free luggage items to be included in the deal?
It`s certainly not a dealbreaker, but i`d just like to know if they`ve been completely `transparent`...
Cheers,
Hann.
