Fake news.  Typical American fare.
Backwards country: you need an Advertising Standards Agency, you do, with only OTR pricing displayed. Wait! How can that be with individual State taxation? Easy, a sub-heading price showing intra-State price. Simples.
What is OTR? On the Road?

I've purchased three motorcycles from this particular dealer, Moto Richmond in Richmond (VA): '23 Moto Guzzi V7 Special Edition, '24 Moto Guzzi V100 Mandello Aviazione Navale, and most recently a '26 Aprilia Tuono 660 Factory. Obviously, since I bought three motorcycles from them, I think they're a pretty good dealer. Chelsea is the owner, and worked out some good deals on these bikes. Of course there will be additional costs above what's listed as the sales price, usually shipping charges and the required sales tax. So yes, getting an OTD price is a better comparison compared to just the sales price. But I wouldn't hesitate to buy a bike from this dealer at all, they're good people.
Getting the OTD price on any vehicle is the only comparison. I bought a new bike last July and had a trade. Talked to two dealers (same make/model and trim package) and one discounted the bike $250 off MSRP the other knocked off $1200 or $1500 off MSRP. On the surface it certainly looked like the dealer that knocked more money off MSRP was going to be the least expensive. When I go the OTD numbers the dealer that only knocked off $250 off list price was $3000 less then the dealer that knocked off $1200or $1500. I really don't care how a dealer gets to the OTD number but its the only number I want to see.

See if a set of Harley air shocks will work, and put a Shrader valve on each shock so you don't have to run air lines. There's usually quite a few sets available on eBay...

What would cause a surge/stutter under load and full throttle from 4 to 5000rpm in a 850T?
Bike had been running great, removed carbs when I had crank balanced and problem started after fitting.
Excellent compression and have changed complete ignition system.
No need for wild imaginative theories IMHO All clues are in this first post. The only thing to ascertain is what exactly was changed during this process Undo that and logic says bike will be running “great” as it was before Only the OP knows exactly what was changed, complete ignition system only ? Revert to the one that worked

Of course there would have to be sales tax added in most cases; I've never seen an advertised price include the sales tax. The MG dealer in San Antonio TX, has a "new" 24 Navale for $12990. Per discussion via messages, I suspect they might take a BIT less. Sales tax in TX would be an additional 6.25%. I have no idea if that would be a good deal or not.

You guys can look a gift horse in the mouth. Buy a new bike and you pay $5K more plus the fees.
Expect OTD price to be around $5k less along with the same fees.
Cadre had 5 V100s at about the same price and they all flew out the door in a couple of weeks. Whats not to like?
