Metzler's sole distributor is Parts Unlimited/Drag Specialties. I do not have and can not get an account with them. They have high dollar minimums and do not want to deal with a small shop. I have to go through Tires Unlimited, Motorcycle Super Store, etc. and you can deal with the same people yourself.

Memphis Shades is another company that uses Parts Unlimited as their sole distributor, so I can't do anything with their windshields either.

How common is THAT?! I hate companies that won't deal locally. I don't even like dealing with stealers, i'd reather take my business to Mom and Pop down the street, better service I've found.

It is somewhat common. Burly Bars uses 2 distributors, one of which is Parts Unlimited the other is Custom Chrome. Now Custom Chrome is strictly parts for Harleys; they do not deal with metrics. But I have talked to them and they have special ordered metric Burly Bars for me.
A similar problem is companies who will not drop ship, that includes Barnett. I order cables for someone in say Phoenix, Barnett sends them to me and I send them 3/4 of the way back where they came from!

I guess thats life, Clifford
