Good dealer in fl not over charging
I live real close to Space Coast during the winter. I bought my FB there, I was happy with my deal. I stop in almost every weekend for the free beer and music, and check out new and used bikes. A couple salesmen always come over and small talk, not pushing a sale, they know I'm not in the market. And yes, there is a turnover of salesman.
As for service dept, I do my own service, but when I had/have tire wear issues, no help with that, but he saw that I had an oil leak at the base of the rear cylinder that I didn't notice. They replaced the base gasket, and leak was still there, very minor, just a couple drops. I took it back, and they did a complete re-seal, spitting the cases, and got it fixed. All covered under warenty.
Just speaking for myself, I would buy from them again.

I know this is a little bit older thread - But I would go to Treasure Coast over Space coast between the two. Space coast service and parts department have improved dramatically in the past year or so. Sale is still meh but better from what I see. I haven't been to Treasure coast in over a year, but when I was shopping 3 years ago the deals were better and the inventory was much better (same owner I know but much different vibes at the two locations). Miracle City is not looking too good lately. Treasure Coast Inventory looks better (more variety and unique bikes) . Palm Beach Harley got us a killer deal on my wife's Low Rider ST. I threw out a ridiculous OTD price and we were able to make a deal. Let me know if you want a referral, there is a kick back on both sides for us. New Smyrna Harley was also great but had a small inventory but of course they are gone now. I'm considering shopping at Teddy Mores, but am apprehensive with the new owner. I get no feeling that I will be considered a returning customer under the new owner. Some of their prices did seem fair during biketober fest and they are starting a warranty forever program now only on new bikes though (understand these warranties aren't worth much more than a rock but still, I would take one if offered) Gator Leesburg prices are terrible. Warhorse in Ocala seemed promising when I shopped there a few years ago but don't have much experience there.
If you are in SWFL and dont stop by Berts Blackwidow HD in Port Charlotte, you are missing out on the best deal you can make on a HD. There sister store is Berts Barracuda Harley Davidson in Clearwater. Good folks to do business with.
Hahaha. The two highest priced dealerships in Florida except maybe for the one in Daytona during an event week. Leastways that's my opinion.
Couldn't agree more. We live 15 minutes from Bert's Baracuda but ride to Tampa H-D for everything. Best prices around. Great people, as well. Ask for Jenna if you go. She's a Sales Manager. Super cool and very fair.
Crystal River seems to be better, but haven't had many dealings with them. Obviously, stay away from Orlando and Miami dealers. Haven't had much time with Tampa, but they seem a little too slippery for me when I've talked to them on the phone.
Probably best to work the phone and Internet to get best deal.
This used to be true. Not any more. Now, they're just like all the other money-grubbing dealers in Florida. Tallahassee and Gainesville HD dealers are fairly straight-up, but they're small and can rarely offer great deals. Ocala dealer is the same. Adamec in Jacksonville is worthless. Stay away from Daytona Harley.

I’m looking to order a new FLHTP and have been shopping around the whole country. Would like to settle somewhere local but haven’t figured that out yet.
Also after a recent experience at Treasure coast, I wanted to add on to my last post to say watch out for their convoluted sales tactics. Their inventory is good and their advertised prices are good but the negotiation process was a carousel. A friend relayed a similar experience.
