Almost newbie in TX

I am wiring funds tomorrow to purchase a 16 GT in FL. It has 2K miles an Akrapovic exhaust and Corbin seat to boot. I think I got a pretty good deal on it. I won't get it for about 3 weeks but I am excited. I have had a couple Burgman 650s in the past and after riding my VFR 2 up in stop n go traffic I decided it was time for another one.
 
I'm curious as to how they got a Corbin on a '16 model. When or if you already got it can you send some pictures? I've been talking to Corbin and they only have 2012-2013. Part #s for 2016 are different, but perhaps they're minimal differences and you have one from the older models. BTW, I too bought a 2016 used. You're going to love it!.
Congratulations.

Hey I got your second PM but I could not reply for whatever reason. Still don't have it. I called yesterday. Apparently according to the Sales Mgr. 3 shippers bailed on them. The one who showed came with an open trailer and they do not ship it that way. He says they are backed up and he has 4 bikes coming to TX. He claims lots of snowbirds are going NE for the summer and shippers are heading that way? Not sure I buy that. I did get the title though. :) He claims the scoot is on a tender and in the warehouse safe from the elements. He agrees with me and states it should have been in my driveway 2 weeks ago.
 
Oh man, that sucks.... oh well, keep me posted. Thanks for the update. Any chance on getting their info and having them take some pics for me?

No, no scam. Had I bought from an individual or CL, I would have never done it. Comes from a well known dealer in FL that has a couple locations. In fact, they shipped it to their store in Chicago to get it here?? I got the title 2 weeks ago. I got a call last night from shipper. He states he will drop it off today. Now the last I heard from the dealer was last week saying they were shipping it to Chicago. A bit more notice would have been appreciated. He was an hour late but scooter was delivered as described.

I took some pics of the seat. DM your # and I will text them to you tonight. I still can't reply to DM, I just tried?????
