I have bought 2 Spyders from them. 2015 RTS and a 2017 F3L. Shipping always seems slow especially when your wanting for your new Spyder to get there. I would say a good 2-3 weeks after all the paperwork is signed. They have to schedule with logistics as usually multi deliveries are made on the same trip. What did you buy???

Imotorsport.
Do yourself a favor and buy Bob’s anniversary Spyder, it’s awesome! And already has everything you’ll eventually buy. If I didn’t buy an RT a month ago, I’d buy it. None were for sale while I was shopping. I love that one.
‘I worked w imotorsports but ended up buying local. They didn’t budge on price and I was told 2-3 weeks for delivery. And that all depends on how long it takes to fill the truck that’s heading in my direction (north east).
Plus, my friends who’ve rode for a while told me that when it’s time to do maintenance, dealers work on bikes they sold first, everyone else waits. Plus I needed new helmets/gear, the dealer gave me great prices on nice stuff.
However if u know exactly what u want, and can wait, imotor is a good option. They sell u the bike, u go to DMV to pay the tax, Reg etc.
Good luck. Happy rYding.

I went there to look at new models and I said I wanted the best price..Well they were $3000.00 more than another dealer's advertised price in my area..and didn't budge..I ended up buying used from a private party...

A 2008 Goldwing Trike, my papers were done Friday and they said it will take probably until late today or tomorrow to finish the 50 point inspection and service. I can't wait to get it here so i'm sure being impatient isn't helping.

I would but I'm getting away from the Spyders, we had fun on ours but we just wanted something bigger, a little more roomier. I guess mainly I'm just curious about the delivery times.

It's not like that at all.

Never experienced that or knew anyone that had in 12 years of riding. Doesn't seem like a particularly good business model either. However I have known of instances where a dealer went above and beyond to take care of a mechanical issue for an out-of-town rider whom they'd likely never see again.

I’m pretty sure that they contract out for shipping so sometimes it can take a while. All depends on where you are and what they have going your way. Patience, patience.

I'm finalizing paperwork with imotorsports this week, and if I can get it done fast, I will get my new Spyder the end of next week, as they have a truck headed this way then. Otherwise, 2-3 weeks wait. I would have to agree that folks who say that imotorsports won't budge on price are correct. I got the $4,500 rebate & that's it. The other side of the coin is, the bike is coming to me & my 2013 is leaving on the same truck. They own their own logistics company and don't farm out deliveries & trade pickups. I think I got a decent deal, not stellar, but one I can live with.

I traded my 2011 Victory Vision for a new left over 2017 F3L from them this spring. Everything was done by phone and email and went very smooth. My deliver took about 4 weeks from start to finish but they had to uncrate and assemble. They won't schedule delivery until the bike is ready to go and all paperwork is done. Then they schedule it along with others heading your way. With mine after everything was ready to go it took about 2 weeks.
Like others have said it depends on how many deliveries and the route they take. With my delivery there were 9 total and mine was #8.

I called today and they received my paperwork yesterday in the mail. I was told it will be looked over tomorrow and then if everything is good, it will be scheduled for shipment. They did go ahead and perform the service and inspection. I hope it can be put on the truck and sent with yours lol.

I've seen them but man they are ugly. I've always been a big fan of the Goldwing trikes. Finally we made it come true.

I am a big fan of IMotorsports Chicago!! In 2015 I purchased my 2015 RT Limited by phone. I received a very good price on Monday me compared to what the local dealers wanted. Instead of the free delivery I drove to Chicago from Ohio with my truck and trailer and picked it up. By doing this I was able to get an additional discount. In truth, I didn’t want to wait for my new Spyder. Great folks to deal with. Everything upfront and no games!!

How's it going with the other hip?
As you know I bought mine through Imotorsports from Jason and saved a ton couldn't of been happier .
One day we will get a root beer as i'm now healing from a fused C6/7 disk in my neck.

There free shipping chips away at the profit margin. But if you fly and ride you probably could save a few more bucks

I am a firm believer in giving your local dealer every chance to sell you your Spyder as you might want them for service or warranty and in order to remain healthy and in business for you is good for both you and them.
How many stories have you read or otherwise heard of a Spyder dealer going the extra step for a good customer.
Sometimes saving several hundred Dollars can cost you big time in the long run............Just saying.
