I pick out the color, and not particulary liking the standard wheels, I picked out the one's I like, and a couple other accessories.
I stop by the local dealer, and he has no Fat boy's in stock.
So I ask how long will it take if I order one? He says he can check with other dealers and if they have one do a swap.
So I tell him about my visit to the web site, and what I want.
He says, "Well, yeah, but you can't buy it that way. You buy the bike, buy the wheels, and we'll put them on--for a charge.
So what he's saying is, I have to buy the bike with wheels I don't want, then buy the wheels I do want, and pay him to install them. Then I have a set of wheels that I either stack in my garage or find somebody who does like them.
Is that normal procedure? That kind of policy sucks.

Yup, thats why they call em STEALERS instead of dealers.
