Its called inflation and the falling value of the dollar, not kawasaki ripping you off.
If you knew anything about inflation (doubtful, given what you said), then you know that it is far less than 11% a year.
...and if you knew jack squat about the new Kawasaki 250, then you would also know that pretty much all dealers have sold their allotment and that these bikes are going for up to $5,000 on the west coast.
Translation: Its not inflation, dummy. It is supply and demand. Kawasaki is selling these bikes like hotcakes, so they are charging more for them next year. Duh.
Hey dumbass. Sure inflation its not 11%. Read the other thing I said dude. 3 years ago the dollar was worth more than the euro, today the euro is almost twice the value of the dollar. The brazilian real is at $1.6 dollars which is the lowest in like 7 years. Then add the fuel costs that have risen for shipping a bike made somewhere in asia and then distributed all over the united states. If they did raise their profit margin it is not by much.
If you were right (which you aren't), then all motorcycles would be seeing a similar % increase in price as the kawi 250
Guess what, idiot? They aren't. Please STFU until you know WTF you are talking about.
