I posted on here a few months ago about my brother having an off on my Uly. It has since been at the dealership for about 2 months and we are still supposedly waiting on parts. I know a few of you work at dealerships, so I was wondering if you could help me figure out what the hold up is.

Right now I have all the parts that were ordered in minus the below:

L0009.1AKYBQ TAILSECTION, RH MAGNESIUM TON
L0010.1AKYBQ TAILSECTION, LH MAGENESIUM TON
M0662.02A8MBK FENDER, FRONT, RACING RED
N1016.1AK TAIL RACK WITH GRAPHIC
M1224.1AVMBK INTAKE COVER KIT, RACING RED
M1601.1AVMBK FLYSCREEN KIT, RACING RED, W/D

what I am being told is that there is no way for them to track where the parts are and how much longer it will take for them to be delivered. The dealership says he can only see if they are "waiting", "boxed", or "shipped". Is this true? What could be taking so long if they aren't making anymore parts. Could they be on backorder this long?

I am trying to be understanding, but this process is taking way to long. Although it could just be the situation with Buell being no more.

What do ya'll think?

Bingo. It isn't like they are still making 400 tail sections a month, so it may take longer for some stuff to come as they need to be ordered in quantity.

It's almost better to look on e-bay to find some of those parts. Might be a few parting out but hard to say. Post wanted adds in the parts wanted section if you haven't already.

Well I'm waiting on my side cases that were ordered on 4/14 from Harley after my accident. Would keep getting a run around when they were going to ship...2 months later they finally arrived last Thursday....only problem is they keyed them wrong even though we had given them (and they acknowledged it) the correct key code. Now I have actually got on the phone with Harley Customer Relations today raising a stink because I hadn't heard anything because now they have to replace the cases...again to get the right locks

Erik Buell Racing has a set of Uly side cases for $300 the other day.

So is it more than likely I will get them 'eventually'? Or is it possible that I will never see the parts?
