Just got off the phone with my Tech, I have been Dragging my feet picking up my bike so I have had him do some other small things to it while it was there.
So I was going to get it today so I called him up, well apparently my bike being a 2002 is now Labeled as "Vintage" in the Harley Davidson world which means the Parts, especially in the Inner working of the bike, that are now Different than the Post 2005 bikes so the parts are sent to a Vintage Warehouse and Not to dealerships so Everything Must be ordered or Backordered etc... So the small item He is waiting on will be in tomorrow.
Time to sell.

I find that a little strange since it was basically the same motor until 2007?

 

[KVD]

I'm not surprised.

He heard that from a "dealer"!
You know, the ones who don't know sheet about V-Rods, how to work on them, get parts, sell them or market them!

Ya those guys.

No I do not go to a dealer, My Tech has his own shop, He is warranty certified and actually fixes the VRSC's that come into the Local Dealership in Orange county as they dont want to hire a Revo specific tech in their dealership.

Big companies do their damnedest to keep everyone on that no down and low monthly payments hamster wheel. It's how this country functions. God help America if the great majority of Americans had no debt and money in the bank. Our employers and our politicians wouldn't be able to get away with half the shyte they do now if we were all debt free.
Don't do it Luxy. Tell Harley, "Screw it, lets ride" and keep your money in your pocket this time.

[luxlamf]

An outsider?....well in that case the info must be more accurate.

 

[VanislVrod]

Vintage has a nice ring to it I must admit...

 

[S Murphy]

Shit David anytime i order stuff for my 05 they get back ordered. With a new trans and other parts you should be good to go for another 6 or 7 years right?

Can you expect more money when you sell a vintage bike?

 

[ElrodontheV-Rod]

So what I gather this means is that I cannot buy parts for my 03 from a dealer,I have to go through a vintage ware house? Bullshit!
Where is this alleged ware house located ?

vintage..... maybe when it comes to the Ano tins...other then that most of the 2002 bike is the same as the 2005 and some parts are still used on the 2009 AW.........

 

[Vambo]

I still can get parts for the 73 at any dealer.

I know,and with money as tight as it is,I doubt for a minute the dealer in Ocala,and Crystal River are going to put up w no pre 05 VRSC parts.

we'll see tomorrow
