I went to the international motorcycle show this past weekend and saw Eagle Rider set up with the Harley display. I spoke with an Eagle Rider rep who told me Harley and Eagle Rider are now merged (his words, NOT mine). He went on to say that Harley dealers will no longer do their own rentals. He said all Harley rentals from all Harley dealers are switching over to Eagle. I am not sure how I feel about that, as I have always had good experiences renting from Harley dealers when I have flown to different areas of the country for business trips and such.
I was not able to leave the display area before I received a sales speech. I was told to sign up with Eagle Rider ($29.00, per month) which will give you one rental day a month from any Eagle Rider location. Allegedly you can stack up your days and keep them for up to two years. For some that might be a great deal. My fear would be paying 29 a month and never having the chance to use all the days. If anybody jumps on this be sure to proceed carefully and read the fine print.
