I believe this is my first posting, but I used to visit Longhorn quite a bit mainly just to look cuz I could not afford anything there. I have dealt with their parts department and had some issues and they quickly fixed it, but they are high. I just started going to Texas Harley in Bedford and really like their points program. Granted if you spend the money which you know we probably will but they have a point system and you get 1 point for every dollar that you spend. I hate to say it, but I have worked my way up to their max point and are beginning to lap my self on getting more money/points on my account. Their staff is great, and I know that if i spend money at a Harley Davidson dealership at least I am banking points/money. Check it out, I think you would be surprised. Now their selection is not as grand as Longhorn Harley, but I think you will not be disappointed. Good Luck

I've never really priced shirts, but I know there's a dealership or 2 around here that charges quite a bit more for parts then everyone else does.

Yeah... Honestly I don't want **** from Harley other than a bike. Besides their bikes they can **** off IMO.

The only Harley clothing I have ever bought is off the clearance rack. If it ain't at least 50% off, it ain't worth it!

Except the Christmas present for my 6 mo old grandson... A three piece ensemble - jeans, t-shirt, and shop shirt in size 12 months.

Kind of makes me wonder. If their T-shirts are 40% more than some of the other Harley dealers, how much are their bikes marked up?

Most dealers have 2 clothing lines, there is the HD branded apparell which has a suggested list price and most have their own clothing line, which should be much cheaper. Make sure you are comparing apples to apples.

if everyone felt like you do, then we would either be paying way more for our parts, or buying parts for some other brand.......

I don't think I've bought a Harley shirt for 5 or 6 years. My friends and family always seem to give me them for my birthday and Christmas. Got 5 last Sunday!!
