Default Referral Fee

I recently referred a buddy of mine to a sales guy at my local HD dealer. He's moving from a Suzuki S83 Boulevard to a 2013 Switchback. He put down a deposit last night and is just waiting for his bonus check to come in. The sales guy said they will have a nice referral fee for me once the deal closes. So here's my question....what do you think I can expect? For those who have received a referral fee, what did you get?

I guess I shouldn't look a "gift horse" in the mouth. However, it better be more than $50 and I'll be pissed if it's JUST a t-shirt. If it's either, yeah, that will be my last referral and I will let them know so. In my mind, it should be at least a $100. If so, I wouldn't mind if it's a store credit. I'll use it towards the chrome front end I plan to purchase.
