Hey everyone, I am going to be buying an EX sometime in the near future and have a quick question. Are there any positives/negatives to buying and having it shipped directly to your house as opposed to having it shipped to an authorized dealer? It just seems like having it shipped to a dealer is the better way because I have seen some horror stories about people receiving theirs damaged in shipping or receiving the wrong bike altogether. Also if something breaks and its still under warranty you have some place to take it. Thanks
