Keep in mind that if you order through a dealer that is not an authorised sales agent/distributor then there might be problems in the event of a warranty claim etc. What some dealers do when they are not official sales/distributors of a particular brand is, via their often extensive network, is, buy the make & model the buyer wants, via another authorised dealer, effectively meaning the bike passes through two dealers 'hands', and then onsells it to the buyer, with the buyer often unaware of this, until a warranty issue raises its ugly 'head'. The first dealer though is the official dealership, and any warranty issues etc., will normally require the bike to return to that point of sale, especially if the warrantable item is anything deemed substantial. One needs to factor in the service and support that such a dealer might be able to provide on a make/model they're likely to be unfamiliar.

The other point to keep in mind here, is the seller will tell you anything you want to hear, just so as you can spend your money with them. Once you have spent your money, is often (not always) where the relationship changes.
