New Price's for Parts

[TrueBlue]

Went on line to order some parts from my yamaha dealer today & saw a lot of items had a increase. For instance a metal gasket for (which is a washer w/ rubber on it)
the oil tank drain plug on 2018 Vector. Last weeks price 1.64. This weeks price 5.03. Better order early before prices go up again.

Although I didn't find quite that high of a percentage difference between prices, I did go back and re-compute an online order I had placed at the end of February (11 out of 26 parts are still on backorder) and that order, if placed today, has increased by 5.3%.

Regarding the backorder, that would be another reason to check and see what parts you might need and get them ordered now instead of waiting until the fall.

You would think this to be true. I'm a home builder and I'm sold out for this year. It blows my mind what people are willing to pay and with high interest rates to boot. It's going to change just don't know when it's going to happen. I know this I could use a break....lol.

Its very hard for the Manufacturers and Businesses too keep up with the increases too. I know I have lost $ on some jobs lately. Not good. Low inventories also make it harder to react.

Waited 9 months for my driveway to be paved, The well guy drilling the well said maybe this Fall, plumber 3 weeks to install Hot water heater, payed $7.35 for a small box of drywall screws, PT lumber......

I can only wonder what DennyTuna (above) charges to build a house and wonder if he discards lumber anymore. A small cottage on a major Maine lake WF can start at $1M, another w/ 3 areas a mile from here is $2.4M, new log cabin across the lake $4M, and I was out bid recently for a WF lot and my bid was $700K. The glaciers ain't making anymore of it!.

Have a 2023 sled ordered and I'm not shock at prices, and if Yamaha modernizes in 2024, I'll sell the 2023 for near or at what I paid for it.

Just an FYI to those riding Cat's that I'm finding the Yamaha prices are usually much lower.
For example I had to order the front heat exchanger for a 2016 Viper. It is $875 from Yamaha. From Cat it is $1330

No rhym or reason to yamaha or cats price structure, i always check both since i'm lucky enough to have both under one roof, you never know which will be cheaper.

The stock market looks to be on board with Trump and his plans.. Look for Prices on things to fall as the rest of the world starts to see people returned to their country’s.. 460 first day. This not only gets illegals out of here it sends a message in many other ways.. Like him or hate him actions speak for themselves…

I've found that Cat has really jacked prices up in the last year or two. Not a good business plan IMO.
Oil filter $40.
Come on!!

Well in their case its a slow roll off the cliff and no return your exactly right.. Bad Business… They prefer to sell the four quart kits… Just little things like this is a telling sign of bigger problems one would have to assume…
