How much Assembly needs to be done?
How can the price be this good?
We are selling these bikes Factory Direct in the Factory box so you get to pay a price comparable to what dealers pay for similarly equipped bikes. These are factory boxed in "dealer-ready" condition and are approx 90% assembled. Most customers have told us they can complete the assembly and tuning of the whole bike including the pre-installed parts in very little time. Some as quickly as 25 minutes, others like to take their time. CLICK HERE to see sample assembly instructions and a video.
