Bought my first HD at Simi/Moorpark HD in CA. A class act. Brought her in today after a long ride through the canyons to show her off, they were almost as excited as I am. The sales and maint folks are super. They fixed a couple of minor problems on the spot.

New Orleans Harley Davidson has been exceptional. Great service and people. Best price amongst the 4 dealerships I shopped.

Battley's Rockville Harley Davidson Is A Great Dealer If Your Looking In Maryland

Lone Wolf H-D in CDA, Idaho. This is our 3rd H-D from 3 different dealers. I have always felt welcome there, before and after the purchase. Unlike where we got our 2nd bike. We were introduced to a few of the people that work there before commiting to the new bike, and than more, weeks later after signing papers. When the bike was ready for delivery, again weeks later after shipping from factory, it was like a family reunion, Dave, the service manager, led me into the shop introduced me to the tech's and let me take pic's of the unvailing as seen in thread Candy Store part 2. I hung out for about 1 hr. in the shop. Who [dealer] lets you do that. Troy deliverd the bike to our shop and made sure we were happy.

. Now it's time to install the extra's and wait for the wing to get out of the sling and put on miles of smiles.

Greenville Harley Davidson in Greenville SC. So far everything they have done and service is great. And even though I did not buy buy Sportster from them they still give me a 10% discount on parts and accesories

Wild West Harley Davidson in Lubbock, Tx. Sold me my bike nearly msrp. Great service. Free first oil change and check-up. Got a plaque in the mail with my name, vin, dealer name and a pic of my exact bike on it and in the background the Flag and an eagle. Pretty cool. Great bunch of guys. All of them made sure that I knew everything about my Street Bob. Called me a week later to tell me also that I get a free detail job on it at anytime. Oh and gave me 10% of everything and free T-shirts for my wife and I.

Fritz's Harley Davidson - Stamford, CT

Fritz has two shops...one in Stamford, CT. and one in Bridgeport, CT. Between the two they have 5 HD Master Technicians covering all 7 of the specialities. (To the best of my knowledge, there are no other dealers in the area who have any of the HD-trained Master Technicians. Fritz also has some of the lowest labor rates in the area and he gives a 20% discount on parts.

On my '09 FLHR, I just had the SE 103 kit installed, Renegade wheels, ceramic coating on the headers, Rinehart slip-ons, pull-back internally wired bars and chrome brake and clutch cables. Can't wait for Spring!!!

Sharky

Are we talking about the same place?

$110 an hour last time I was there and they get you for shop supplies on every bill regardless of what they do. As far as their techs, I can't even give most of them them a thumbs up at all especially the service manager.
Last time I asked for my 10%, they just smiled but this was all a few years back.

Sorry bud!

Must have been a looonnnng time ago Glider. Labor rate during the riding season is $85/hour. Off season it is less. And, the 10% parts discount was applied to a "frequent buyer card" that could be redeemed at fixed points. That card has now been eliminated (current cards redeemed for gift certificates equal to value) and Fritz now has a 20% parts and merchandise discount plus a points program in addition.

The guys I generally ride with have all had really good experience with the technicians. I looked in on my bike several times while it was being upgraded last month and the technician was incredibly helpful, spending a lot of time with me and making helpful suggestions.
