Thanks for tip LTR.

Personally I've done catalog shopping through JP Cycles. Other than that I've made some purchases off of ebay.

I have done both denniskirk.com and jpcycles.com.

Ebay is also a good place to go too but research the item (price) and don't get caught in a bidding war and pay too much for the item. Don't forget to add shipping as well. That could put the item over what you would pay at Dennis Kirk or J & P Cycles.

Hard to beat genuine H-D parts. Pricey? Yes. Worth every dime? Absolutley.

There is not a part on my bike that does not have the HD pedigree (except the DFO). Pricey - yes and probably a hell of a lot too pricey.... But, they're HD.

Haven't invested a lot into the bike but I'm thinking that everything will probably be HD...just to be on the safe side.

So far everything has been HD. I use DK for supplies and stuff. I was thinking about buying some chrome head bolt covers from them. Has anyone used them?

Ryan, I was looking at those, and wondering how well they hold up.

I can say Dennis Kirk's is run like a well oiled machine.
I won the bid on a new Corbin "Gunfighter and Lady" seat on ebay.
The money order was sent Nov. 29. I received tracking notification 2 days later and the seat (brand spanking new in box) was at my door yesterday the 3rd of Dec.
That is phenominal!
