The Italian brand leads the charge in the value department offering its 2018 and 2019 Shiver 900 naked bike at a steep discount of $7,399 when financed (up to 5.99 percent APR for 60 months, or 0 percent APR for 48 months). Military and/or first responders are eligible for an additional $750 discount lowering the cost to $6,649.

Word on the street is BMW has a fresh-faced G 310 R coming soon. So it’s no surprise the Motorrad company is offering a $1,000 discount on its already attractively priced and entry-level 2019 G 310 R reducing the price to just $3,945. That’s less than many mid-grade mountain bikes! Would-be adventure riders can also save $1,000 on the 2019 G 310 GS to $4,795.

Big Red announced an overhauled Africa Twin ADV bike at EICMA last year. To make room for its new 2020 liter-class adventure-touring rig, it’s offering a generous $2,500 discount on the up-spec Adventure Sport 2019 CRF1000L2. This reduces the cost of ownership to $12,599—a great deal for riders seeking a friendly and reliable motorcycle to roam the Earth aboard.

Indian Motorcycle established a new street tracker class with its FTR 1200. The American bike brand is keen to get more people sliding sideways by offering $2,000 off ’19 FTR 1200s, lowering its price to just $11,499 (base price). Current model year FTRs see a price reduction of $1,500.

The Green Team has a couple of noteworthy deals this month. Motorcyclists looking for the biggest bang for the buck should take a peek at the 2019 W800 Cafe. This retro-themed motorcycle is currently priced at $8,049, a $1,750 discount off its original MSRP.

Folks looking for a practical, yet still fun, do-it-all streetbike would be wise to take a closer look at the 2019 Versys 1000 SE LT+. Although its name is a mouthful, this top of the line is loaded with features and offers a capable platform for riders seeking a workhorse in their garage.

Like its sister brand, Aprilia, Moto Guzzi offers one of the best deals in motorcycling right now with its attractive 2019 Moto Guzzi V7 III series Stone. Would-be buyers can purchase this motorcycle for $6,990 with the option of 5.9 percent APR financing for five years for qualified buyers. Enlisted military and first responders can purchase this motorcycle for just $6,250.

Indian brand Royal Enfield isn’t offering any sales incentives currently in the US, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get a good deal on its super-affordable twin-cylinder-powered 2020 Royal Enfield Continental GT650 (café racer, $5,999) and 2020 Royal Enfield INT650 (upright naked bike, $5,799). Both bikes sport a sub six grand MSRP and include a three-year warranty with roadside assistance.

Suzuki silently introduced a new café racer-inspired middleweight with its 2019 SV650X. Now it’s offering a $750 rebate reducing its cost of entry to $7,649. Well-qualified buyers may be able to secure 0 percent financing for five years through Synchrony Bank so you can ride away from the dealership with only a few hundred dollars out of pocket.
