its asurance but doesn't mean you shouldn't look elsewhere and test ride.

Definatley, I will be testing all of my choices....although the Hard Rock is most talked about here, and is actually cheaper by $40 then the Fire Mountain. But definatley I will try those 3 out, including the Yukon and maybe even the Cinder Cone for fun :P

You could probably get $100 off at the most. When i bought my Giant Yukon the guy said he would knock off $50 if you had payed cash, in the end i got $100 off. :)

I think retail for the HR Sport is $350, that's what it seems to be almost everywhere.

Wow it should be $450 in AUS...thats still about half the price! Although theres shipping and other stuff probably..and from what the HR sports seems like, it seems a good deal for its money.

It may be a good bike, but you always have to test ride it.

I will say it again, I'm not one that will read reviews and say 'buy it! buy it! get it! OMG that is great! No questions asked!'. No. I will always think things through before I buy them, and with a new bike i will be flicking the name 'Hard Rock' out of my head, and taking a closer look at the parts, and feel of the bike.

I'm choosing between the Sport Disk and the Comp Disk. I would prefer the comp disk, its about $75-$100 more but the reviews on it are A LOT better then the Sport Disk. Apparently the major let down on the Sport Disk is the RST fork, Comp having Marchozzi. So If I could find a Comp, which I havn't in '05, I might wait for the '06 to come out.

Tough Desicion.
