OR Drag Specialties is feeling the choke just like everyone else.
I don't have any fact to base my thoughts on, but I would have to agree with this statement.
We know Ultima has been blowing things out.
I was very surprised what the Accutronix triple trees were discounted down too that we ordered for a forum member. And these weren't overstocks either. When I ordered them, they advised it would be over a week before they get shipped since they were still at the chromer. Can't get much fresher than that.
A local bike builder made a profound statement to my partner late last year regarding the economy. He said, "The past couple of years we have learned how to save a dime as opposed to how to make a dime".
Good words to live by in this day and age.
Probably lots of manufactures, distributors and dealers learning to take the same approach if they have not started already.
Just my 2 cents.
