That is surely true in the profits dept. - but I wonder if the cost of all the warranty replacements of ALL the parts that sometimes require repeated, labor-heavy replacements actually offset what they save from continuously cheaping-out whenever possible?

Guess it must, since the MOCO has been doing it for decades.

the twin cooled stuff started in 2014 are they are just now getting alot of bikes that are out of the two year warrenty. they are going to start selling alot of parts to people that don't buy the extended warrenty. they are going to screw you either way. over priced warrenty or over priced parts. the thing is the parts are still junk, no matter how you end up paying for them. someone will start to make good after market pumps.
