Phoenix Area Question
I am hoping to buy my first bike in the next few weeks. I already know what I want and have driven it. The 883L, I am only 5'6" and it fits me like a glove. I can not wait! My question is which dealer did you get your bike from and why? I know I am looking at at least MSRP, but what else can I expect from the dealer regarding price and options. You input is greatly appreciated.

RE: Phoenix Area Question
I didnt buy from them but after researching for months on prices Buddy Stubbs seemed the most reasonable to me. Apache Junction also seemed pretty good. Chandler seemed the most expensive. I should mention this was all on preowned bikes tho.

RE: Phoenix Area Question
I'm going through the process right now. I can tell you what I've found. Hopefully this is in time to help.
I've dealt with 4 dealers, and I'd suggest Superstition. Superstion in Apache Junction is an MSRP dealer. Not much stock, but easy to deal with. Havent taken delivery, though, so jury still out.
I went through a nightmare at Chandler.
Hacienda was pretty helpful, but I cant really judge them since they couldnt get a line on the bike I wanted.
Couldnt get a good read on Stubbs.
Good Luck!

RE: Phoenix Area Question
My Buell's were from Chandler HD, as was my 2003 Lowrider. My 2005 FLHTI is from Chosa's (now Chester's). The main reason I went to Chandler for my Lowrider was because I was trading in the Buell's, and at the time it was only Hacienda and Chandler that would take them, and Hacienda was pricing quite high at the time (part of being in Scottsdale!) I was up there about a week or two ago and it looks like the prices have come down some, at least the ones listed on the bikes were lower than what I remember. I would've bought my Electra Glide at Chandler (I ride with several of the employees there), but I couldn't get a good enough deal for my Lowrider, or for the EG I was looking at at the time. Chandler does seem to have the highest prices right now (Chandler, Superstition, Arrowhead, and HD of Tucson are all owned by the same guy btw).
Buddy Stubbs is supposed to have MSRP pricing, but they don't have a large selection (or didn't when I last looked in 2003.)
I liked Chosa's, best prices, better service shop (Never had much luck at Chandler for service, neither did a friend of mine with an 02 Lowrider). I go into Chosa's and Chandler quite often (I hit Chandler about once a week, but my office is literally walking distance from there), and good people all around at both places.

RE: Phoenix Area Question
I've bought 2 bikes from Chosa's (Chesters) they always seem to give the best price (msrp), to me anyway and they seem to want to make the deal. Superstition just did not seem interested in selling me a bike when I went in. They all just stood around talking to their buddies. I also watched a guy open up his saddle bag in the lot, pull out a beer, crack it open and drink it. No one said a word but my 8 year old son. I left. Their service is crappy too.
Chandler is a bunch of crooks. They wanted to charge more than 06 msrp for a new 05 road glide they got from a stealer in MN this winter.
My bike is at Chester's now, they looking at it to see if it meets the criteria for the CVO injector upgrade. I told the service manager that if Harley is putting them in all the 06 engines now, there has to be a good reason and I want them in my 06 too. I'm waiting for them to call, we'll see what happens.
