we dont have a lot of choices when it comes to dealers. theres pretty much just the one major factory supported dealer here in town, with just a couple of independent shops. all have great reputations, but limited stock of new/used bikes. While not a mechanic, I do enjoy performing what maintenance i can and dont see that as a major headache.
I didn't know you were in Ozzie land...it doesn't say where you're from. First I want to say...I feel terrible for the flood victims in your country from all the rain. I love Australia and Australians even more...so good luck!
I've been there a couple of times...Darwin, Brisbane, and Sydney to name a few. I simply love your country.
Good luck with your choice...we are here for you man!!!

Having rode Triumph's in the 60,70 and 80's, then to Bmw 90-2008 you learn the good and bad of all machines, bought a 2005 Road Glide in 2008 and have not looked at another brand yet, 2009 Electra Glide in Blue and Pewter, now a 2011 Road Glide Ultra in Merlot Sunglo with 6,000 miles. I do believe the beautifacation program will exceed the maintenance cost.

This is my second RKC, and the 09 version is a big improvement! With the internet, you can buy parts from anywhere, and most of the upgrades (other than a stage one) you can do yourself. Pipes, chrome, etc are all easy to bolt on, and the best part about that is learning about your bike. I never worked on any of my bikes before I switched to the motor co, and it's been great fun.
Sounds like you took an RKC with the new 103 engine upgrade for a ride....could you really go back to metric now? Bet not...
BTW- sorry to hear about all the flooding in OZ, hope things get back to normal for you soon.
