The dealer doing my bike delivery in April is supposed to be top notch in North Florida (St. Augustine Harley Davidson), but since I'm new to all this I'd rather be safe than sorry. If nothing else I can double check the work done with my books. Right? BH.
If they screw up, a good friends of mine is a lawyer down there......Mike Hines. Tell him Rube sent ya.....

Thanks. I'm going to be checking up on that sooner than later.

Do the dealers hassle you when you go to buy the manuals? I've heard some will refuse to sell them to you. I suspect it's a fear of lost Service Department business for them. Will MOCO sell you the books directly if it comes down to it?

Either way, I've got Google and Ebay if nothing else, right?

A dealer refusing to sell you something? That's a new one. I can't believe any dealer in the country would refuse to sell you something. What planet are you living on?
