I am glad I don't get treated that way at my local dealer.
I stop in just to look around and only one person will come up to me....ONLY ONE...
He knows about my wreck and, He asks me how I am doing. He knows that I am getting my sporty ready to ride as soon as I have healed up enough...
The other sales people tend to stay away...
The parts people tend to look me in the eye when I speak (I've been buying parts) and they know what I am going to ask when they tell me how much the parts are...and they will do what I ask.
It helps to build a relationship with your local dealer. It may take time, but when they recognize you they will treat you different.
I'll be swinging by some time mid week next week. I've been doing some number crunching on a new Heritage and will indeed find out if they would give me an offer to good to pass up on!
