Mountainview24, what dealership do you work at? I ask this because if your boss hired you, he also probably hired more like you and that is one dealership I want to avoid like the plague!

So, it's just fine with you to steal from a dealership. After all, they deserve it, right?

All thieves should be eliminated as efficiently as possible.

What the hell you bitchin' about?....you said it yourself in your post... re-read it....you said. " if they steal a part or pilfers some package contents then they deserve what they get". Somebody stole it, so they deserve what they stole. Geezz... bitchin about something they deserve.

You pretentious douchebag! You honestly have the audacity to put in the two words dealership and karma in the same sentence. Do you know anything about your market? The one thing 'we' (HD riders) hate are dealerships because they are known to charge higher than MSRP which is mearly a suggested retail price thought up between the HD and dealerships. Dealerships are known for their mark-up tactics. Please have more respect for yourseld and refrian from using those two words in the same sentence...

Well let's see, they charge 300 DOLLARS for an oil change. Hmmmm talk about calling the kettle black. They don't call them stealers for no reason. That's karma bitch.

So I'm curious, what would be the proper karmic response for a stolen gas cap? I'm thinking hangnail, or maybe a moderate sneezing fit.

Wow, if you're that upset about the gas cap, wait until you find out that I took the pistons, rods, crank, cams, lifters, and valves out of it too. Renting the bike was cheaper than buying the parts.

It wasn't stolen.....we kidnapped it. Put $100 in small unmarked bills into a paper bag and leave it in the 3rd stall of the men's room at Chuck E. Cheese. If we see one cop car in the parking lot, the gas cap gets it. We're not playing. Here's the little rubber gasket we ripped off of the underside as proof we have it. Once we have the money, we'll leave the gas cap, um...."Hey, you guys, where do we put those gas caps again?"

We'll get back to you.
