Update:
After exchanging some emails/phone calls with the local KTM dealer, Husqvarna manufacturer in NJ, a reputable Husqvarna dealer, and a local BMW dealer, here's the plan:
1. Pay off ZX-10R, and a good chunk of some other debt.
2. Haggle a price on a new Husqvarna TE630 with the dealer and leave a $500 deposit for it.
3. Once the 10 & other debt is paid off, sell the 10, get a loan for the Husky (I should only need $3000 or so). ZX-10R money will go toward the Husky.
4. Contact dealer, who will then ship the crated Husky to the local BMW dealer (it's cheaper to ship it there than to my house).
5. BMW dealer offered to assemble it for me, but I'll probably do that myself.
This is a fairly long term plan. I'm looking at getting the new bike next spring. All parties involved are aware of that.
Once I leave the $500 deposit, I'm locked in. Right now, things might change. But, that's my plan!
