You thought the original price was low - why go lower? Just give him the $2500 and you'll both be happy.

32K is a lot on a bike. The tech looked at it, found more oil leaking... I might be getting into $1k in repairs to make it right... at which point I'd have been better off with the $3500 bike with 3500 miles. I offered 2100, he wanted 2300... i went to 2200... he held firm, and I passed.

I'll ride the red one and see how it feels. I can call him if I hate the red one. I think I'd be better off with a bike that had no issues and less miles for a little more money.
