Default $72.00 for BRAKE PADS?!?!
Are you kidding me? Rear brake pads for a 1994 Fatboy are $72.00 and change at the Harley dealer.

J&P has aftermarket sets with 5-star ratings for $24.99 plus shipping.

Just wanted to share.....

I am surprised that you are surprised about the high cost. Everything at the Harley dealer is much more expensive. If Rock Auto started selling motorcycle parts they would make a fortune. I love their top tier brands at very reasonable prices.

You're not truly surprised are you? The MoCo doesn't want anyone buying their stuff anymore if you ask me, with the price of everything the sell.

I think you'd be surprised how many people walk into dealership parts and service departments and just open up their wallets to them.
