Mine came with a plastic frame advertising the dealership. It will soon be replaced with the Aeorstich frame that says "70MPG" so all the cages can get even more annoyed as I cheerfully filter on by.

My last bike, the Buell came like yours..nothing, not even screws & nuts for the plate. A quick stop at the hardware store remedied that but I never did get a license frame for it. The plate was naked, just like the bike

Given the choice between a full tank of gas or a couple screws & nuts worth two dollars,
I'll choose the gas every time

My bike, delivered yesterday, came with a full tank of gas and a plate holder. I'm shaking my head that there's even a thread about this. How cheap can a dealership be?

Oh, I think you'd be surprised.
With the exception of one really good HD/Buell shop (now out of business) and one really good Kawasaki shop (still in business) all the dealerships I've had experiences with are as cheap as they can get away with.

I can't comment yet on my Honda shop. I'll be finding out in a week or two.

What we need is a "good dealership" thread where folks can enter the dealerships where they've gotten excellent service from and give mini reviews. Such as dealer name, location, service done, results.
