RE: How deep of a discount do you get on parts at your local dealership?
I have quite a few dealerships that are within easy riding distance, and Zannoti's Motor Company (HD/Honda/Yamaha) is one of them, and the last place for me to buy.(locals pay tax and we cannot pickup, still need to have shipped)
The dealerI bought the bike from has a free card(MVP) that credits 5% of purchases over $10., plus I get 15% for Local Hog. They also do some promotional thing at least once a month that gives a discount on service (oil change for price of oil and filter, cheap state inspection, etc), "select motorclothes" for up to 75% off this weekend at a "interactive garage party".
The other dealers do some of the same things but not the MVP card. Each Dealer has a website that they list thier "activities" for the month, and also allow you to subscribe to thier "e-newsletters" which will give you a e-mail with the "happenings" ateach dealership.
The nice thing about having a bunch of dealers in a small area is they need tocompete for bussiness and with that the customer wins.(I have 17 dealerships within 1 1/2 hours ride)

I get 15% discount for being Active Military. They say I'll have it for life after I retire, we'll see. I've been very pleased with my dealership ... they've taken good care of me. I've often seen things I want in other dealerships but I always wait until I'm back home to give them ALL my business.

Every time I read one of these threads, I feel fortunate. Dillon HD in Omaha, Ne. knows me by name, service department has been good. Get 10% everyday and have had 2 events so far this year with 20%. Usually get these discounts even on aftermarket parts such as Vance & Hines and Kurakyn.

15% ... Dealer is very supportive of the Military and being retired I get 15%, and with all the money I've spent there that 15% has added up.
