Harley instituted that rule over a year ago. Dealers can give you a 20% discount but they aren't allowed to advertise it. Old news.

one of the dealers near me is advertising on facebook and the local radio stations a 30% off St. Patty's Day sale weekend on any Harley branded item including parts. wonder how MOCO feels about that

Well, I didn't pay attention last year. All the parts I added weren't available at the dealer, (like my Rivco passenger pegs, which are way better quality, and design than the Kuryakyns). But the HD dealers get penalized for carrying Rivco over Kuryakyn.
I didn't realize the normal rules of sell what the customer wants, don't apply at Harley dealers. It is sad to have a good, honest dealer, have to play games to keep some executives who never rode until they were CEO of HD, happy.

This is an old link about how the CEO never rode until he became CEO. Does anybody know if he rides now?

My wife tagged along with me last year to the local HD. While I was getting a seat screw, she found a tanktop she liked. 56.00, are you effing kidding me? Needless to say, my wife did not want it after she saw the price.

Looking in the catalog, lot of parts have " superior- better, then stock" in the descriptions. Heck of a business plan on FOMO's part, and works like a charm. So far........

.......... that's called 'marketing', and it's been going on ever since sellers grasped that prices are just ink on a removable tag.

Senior moment...ment to say "i returned to buy those things, and found that they raised the prices and the sale price was more then the original price."
