I've got to chuckle at that one ... reminds me of the two salesmen I asked the same question to, before I bought my '02.
Salesman #1 was at a combination BMW / Triumph dealer in San Antonio.
Salesman #2 was at a multi-brand dealer (reseller) in San Antonio - the guy had an '08 Bonneville, for $6000 (200 miles).
Neither one of those guys knew how to get under the seat. Pretty sorry-ass salesmen, in my opinion.
