Is it common place to be able to buy parts at Rallies? Install them?
I am in the market for a set of wheels and with Myrtle Beach right around the corner I didn't know if any of the manufacturers brought product with them and would install on site or not?
just make sure you know what you are buying. I got burnt on a riser said that I was told fit by bike and didnt. i was young and dumb at the time, older now, jury still out on the dumb part. I too will be at myrtle beach and am looking to score a windshield for the ride back.
Have seen and taken good deals.......have seen vendors trying to take people and treat them like they were idiots [okay...some people are idiots] but you get what I mean.
I have not been to the Myrtle Beach rally but at most large rallys, the major aftermarket suppliers are there selling and installing. Many times at discount, sometimes at regular price.
Most major vendors show up with most common/popular products and usually offer some sort of "deal" so they won't have to lug things back home. I'd check web sites or call those you are interested in. Find out where they will locate and when they'll be there.
RoadKingRon - check out Memphis Shades. I've got one of their's on my RKC and like it much better that the stock screen. They are usually present at the ralley and usually offer a deal.
