Guest Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 Hello All !OK I have the Pricing hot off the press. Honda VFR750 94 to 97 $375 USD Honda VFR800 98 to 01 $375 USD Honda VFR800 02 on $640 USD Please find all details of the VFR Promotion Group Buy Attached. :thumbsup: <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Adam, Is there an Australian price taking into account savings in shipping costs & where can I take the order form to as you have only 2 Aus dealers listed on your website & they are a heck of a long way away from Far North Queensland.

Guest wallace_18 Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 I think my calculations are correct, normal price 770 USD / .75 roughly 1030 AUD. Sale price 640 USD / .75 roughly 850 AUD. Why is it, they make them in aus, ship them to the us, and still charge us $1200AUD and can't buy them from the website!?? Cheapest i've heard in aus is $950. Good old aussie staintune, look after the american market and leave the homeland to pay through the nose. Not very aussie like..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum CEO HispanicSlammer Posted February 10, 2006 Forum CEO Share Posted February 10, 2006 Give me a break- sporttour was selling for $680- saved $40. I noticed no one replied to my earlier post! wimps! Erion has not replied to my e-mail request on a discount if we bought 30 USA made pipes. I think it was 2 years ago sombody here approched Erion about a group discount and went unanswered, so we all let that one go. Really though, calling us wimps is not the best way to get any cooperation and does not reflect the spirit of this forum The members just flat missed it or just did not care to answer - which is better than flaming sombody we dont agree with. It is easy to get lost in the maze around here. Watch your tone please or you may find your self looking at an error screen. $40 is $40 bucks, that you can spend on somthing else, dinner with the lady or somthing. The 5th gen price is even more savings I cause I believe I paid $60 more than this price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Give me a break- sporttour was selling for $680-? saved $40.? I noticed no one replied to my earlier post!? wimps!

SEBSPEED Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 I'm sorry, but none of those dealers are "local" to me. Why can't we file the form and pay you directly, electronically, and recieve them sooner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think it was a nice gesture, especially since he didn't even have to offer anything. As for me thanks Staintune for $40 discount..I would love to get them...but...just did my taxes and found out Uncle Sam would like $2500 from me. Yeah it sucks. :beer: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer stic3 Posted February 10, 2006 Member Contributer Share Posted February 10, 2006 I consider it a absolute great gesture to the VFRD community from Staintune to make these arrangements. Count me in for a Hi or Lo mount for my Y2K, Still cannot make up my mind, just love the look of the Hi mount, but it kills my using soft bags. Know if I get the Lo mount though I will soon regret not getting the Hi. I at least have until the end of March to make up my mind, or you can look at it I have to keep going back and forth until the end of March Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest squally Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Thank's Adam for putting this together and saving us some $. Sporttour quoted me $689 so the savings is more like $50, maybe more if we don't have to pay shipping, will the dealer charge for shipping? I will be ordering a set from Power Motor Sports in Palatine,Il on Monday. Tunes and a custom map should make my V-tech sound and perform the way it should! Good luck with your search for a VFR!!!

Guest Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 I agree with some of the previous posts that this is an incredible gesture on the part of Staintune. Everything I have read says that Staintune customer service is second to none and this confirms it for me. I would also like to point out that at the end of the application it says there will be a price increase in July. This IMO adds to the savings for the buyer. I as a consumer do not always have access to information to price increases. So to me this is an additional savings. I am frantically crunching numbers in my head so I can get a set of these!!! Thanks Again Adam!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could cancel, but I'd rather not wait. I hope you find a good VFR and stick around our great forum ! Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honda VFR750 94 to 97 $375 USD Honda VFR800 98 to 01 $375 USD Honda VFR800 02 on $640 USD Please find all details of the VFR Promotion Group Buy Attached. Thank you all for time and comments, I am of to look at a 5th Generation VFR with only 7500km on it tomorrow. Let you know how it goes. For any Motorcycle Dealers that are interested, Staintune and myself will be at the Indy Dealer Expo later this month Site Number 6509, Look forward to seeing you there. Kind Regards Adam CEO Staintune Aust Pty Ltd :thumbsup: <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Adam, Maybe it is just an oversight but, it would appear that those of us with 4th Gen VFR750s 94-97 aren't listed on the order form. I was under the impression that you were going to include us in this group buy. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 I'll be "in the area" of Staintune in about 3-4 weeks. I wonder if I could get a tour and if they let me take some pics assuming there is nothing too sensitive... My trip to the Philip Island WSB race then onto Tasmania and back up to Sydney takes me straight past Staintunes home. We shall see how things go. Hey Adam, If you're not busy, and assuming you're back from the USA, want to ride home with me around March 22??? Sounds like you could do with a break :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It cheaper for me to mail order from the US and send back to NZ for most of my bike kit ... hopefully some remus TI pipes will be winging there way here soon ...

Much easier to organise local than overseas but at the moment there is so much interest in the US market and virtually none here in Aust. Alternatively you could contact staintune direct, let them know about the group buy here (at VFRD) and ask if there is a special price for Australian memebrs of VFRD. It will cost you nothing to send an email!! Please let us know how you go. :D Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VFRGreg,Its OK, I will be posting the full price list and Group Buy Details on the Staintune Web site some time next week. Customers will be able to buy from any part of the world they want, we have the technology ! All the Staintune international distributors will be happy to help. Kind Regards Adam CEO Staintune Aust Pty Ltd I will send an email to Staintune, however, it does seem that they may have changed their minds about the global participation.

Guest BlueVFRank Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Perhaps i missed the post somewhere but what about the people over here in Europe? Would love to order a set of tunes myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Adam, thanks for putting this together. I checked my "local" dealers, both are BMW dealers and having previously owned one of those tractors, I don't have a good relationship with them and quite frankly don't trust them. Does anyone else have concerns about going to their local dealer and giving them cash for this? I would not be surprised if mine added a "service or handling fee" to complete the transaction... I understand they need to make money and pay the bills, but I also don't want to spend any more than I have to... I'm supposing based on a previous email from Adam, that we can deal direct with 'Tune, so I'd prefer that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
