Not all HD Dealers are Alike

I have now had the opportunity to compare price quotes and have some revelations:

Front Fork Seals

Old Town Harley $380

Manatee Harley $290

Private Certified HD Mechanic $150

What a difference. IF you were not sure about paying for Ferman overhead, here is the real proof. It would also seem that customers are LEAVING the Tampa HD dealers and are headed to Manatee an Fletchers. Better work, prices that are more in line (less overhead) an NOT associated with car dealers.

The battle with HD rages this week fired my attorney and hired another. Seems that "mother HD" has very long arms and my first attorney fell into the death embrace. My new attorney is a SHARK and been instructed to pull all the stops!! There are a few of us that operate on principal (yes, indeed missing from far too many businesses in Tampa). A reasonble settlement offer expires tomorrow, and based on the testimony of the mechanic (HD Certified), the findings will bury two dealers and HD. ON Monday, my proposed settlement increases well into 5 digits. More to come for those that are interested.

The lines are drawn and I will see HD in Hell first BEFORE I will back down!!
