Most of the parts I needed for my 1978 R100S came from either Huckys or A&S BMW Motorcycles. Excellent service and ease of ordering.

If, that's if, I bought in state from a dealer 140 miles away I would start out paying 6% over parts cost for taxes. In todays world I don't care if the parts come from Timbuktu if there good & cheap. Thats the way people often buy stuff these days,esp. when there is no such thing as "local" for me.Also shipping policies & price points /business plans vary wildly on parts. On my Honda vintage project many/most of the parts sellers are in Asia. NY, CA doesn't matter to me.How funny! You are in Ohio and use A & S in California, and I am in Nevada and use Max in New York.
I had used Capital in the past to buy "stock" items, as I have several Airheads. But they "lost' a couple orders, and were lackadaisical about getting them out. So I haven't bought since. It seemed they changed ownership.
No one has mentioned them, but I have been very happy with EUBMW, though their offerings are not large.

The Chicago BMW that I used to buy parts from -with a discount- is gone. While I don't expect a freebie from a business: Is there a BMW dealer that currently offers a similar discount on OEM parts? I get that on car parts but have no similar deal for my bikes, in fact it's easy to get ~20% off on BMW car parts w/o being in business.
