I am looking into buying a buell leather jacket. The one I want is on the buell website- jacket XRCO- part number BU27. Is there anywhere I can get it cheaper than $540?

I dont know if yall monitor this but Vanson is offering 100 dollar rebates know on their American made jackets 500 dollar or more. They are moving their manufacturing to El Salvador. I just purchased a cobra3 from a local vendor and thats what they said. I don't know if it covers Buell licenced apparel or not. They also told me the price will probably drop in the near future on all Vanson apparel do to cheap labor. Does this spell the end of Vanson Quality? I hope not but I went ahead and got the jacket. The rebates will probably last another month according to who I bought from. I plan on getting some pants before the rebate ends.

485.10 Badweb price.

Glad I'm getting mine before they move operations.

Rebates don't apply to Buell stuff.

Got one at Battlefield HD for $230.00. Buell logo and all. It was on the sale rack, plus 15% off at that time. They usually have tow or three back there (old style's, but the $$$$ is great ) Only thing is they are usually small or medium. I don't know if that would help you, but I guess you could search some HD/ Buell dealers for old stock or sale items. Battlefield HD/ Buell : www.battlefieldharley-davidson.com

Thanks Dave. I'm in no way pushing you. I understand that a quality hand stitched jacket isn't going to be quick! I'm just itching for it!!! : )

Dave, can you order regular Vanson items also? Would that get the rebate and/or BadWeb discount? I'm looking for some pants to go with my Cobra jacket and am thinking about the pro-perf technical ones but they're sooo expensive! Do you know much about custom sizes with them? My aerostich pants had to be made extra long.

i know this doesn't help but.... iwas at the dealer in woodstock NY and they had a bunch of stuff on clearance. I got a buell jacket for 245.00. It is a vanson but it only has parts that are leather. Its that carhart type material.... i forgot the name of it. I was originally 500 so igot it for half price....not a bad deal. Dealers sometimes have clearance items i guess it depends on big the buell section is.
