Just try to get a Stortster from a deal near me. Here they only order 1 or 2 883's and about 6 1200's for the entire year. Why, because the less expensive the bike the less they make. Their profit margin is very low on Stortsters. They even refuse to order you one. I ask both the dealers in my area Monday when I went shopping to buy and was told by the first that they might get some more in an about 4 weeks but he couldn't guarantee it. The second place told me that they had their quota for the year and could not order any more (how can Harley not fill an order for a bike, no matter how many the dealer already ordered?). Aren't they in business to sell as many bikes as possible?
I also noticed that they had plenty of $20,000 softails there.
