Charles,

This is the mentality of most all motorized vehicle dealerships today-----cars, motorcycles, boats, you name it. Go to a Honda, Harley, Moto Guzzi, whatever, motorcycle dealer, almost any new car dealer, no body keeps big inventories of parts anymore, because it's too damn expensive to keep the stuff laying around, and with the computerized ordering systems they have today it usually is a matter of a day to get the stuff( if it's at the local warehouse.)

Forget customer convenience----thing of the past, regardless who's doing it to who, and mostly it's the dealers who decided to spend their money elsewhere, other than stock parts.
