Struggle for the Sportster Continues..

From Luke :
"Uhh am I at the right place,,,is this a Harley Dealer,,," this is what I'm thinkin' as I'm staring at the salesman's handlebar mustache while he explains to me about the recent issues with the overstocked '09 sportsters and how the 0'10s wont be producing until way into 2010. I just wanted to say somethin a'holie like "is this a motorcycle dealer or isn't it?" "I thought harley had the sportsters" This frustration was even farther fueled by the looks you get when your not dressed head to toe in HD biker gear, as if the only way to experience the open road is to buy all their merchandise.Things are definitely not what they used to be. The golden moment is when the 12 year old sales manager steps up and gives his spill about not knowing WHEN there gonna get anymore, basically trying to infer that id better buy whats on their floor right now as if the entire building is about to be sucked into a black hole. I loved how the sales manager was so young and the sales rep doing all the work was at least 50. I wasn't planning on getting my new bike that day, I mostly just wanted to annoy the heck outa them with questions. Looks like both of us accomplished that mission. On a better note I have the cash now to take my drivers course. That's gonna be one hell'ova story. To be Cont'd...
