I agree with you MaineStreetGlide, there a lot of the dealerships pulling fast ones. I not naming names but the one I used to work for here in Pocatello Idaho that's has the same owners as the one's in Idaho Falls, Twin Falls, Jackson Hole WY, Mesa Az and now Reno NV. The dealers can charge what ever prices they want, they do not have to charge msrp, there is no law against it, so they add a % on hard parts, the parts customers have no way of knowing usually, most customers never know, I didn't know and I was working there, untill I started getting flack from ESP when my prices did not match there price books, then I would give a estimate to a insurance company for repairs and before I had the job done the RO went up in price, sometime by a fifty bucks or more, so the only right thing to do was, I changed the prices back to my original quote which is probably one of the many reasons I'm not employed there anymore. The dealeships are being bought up by a bunch of corporate yuppie scum that have never ridden a Harley and can only see a guaranteed return on their investment, way too much & way too fast. Come on, every business has to make a profit, and they do, but it's how they make it that bothers me so much.
I just had to spout off a little too, I feel better now, Not.
