I used to sell high-end motorcycles (MV-Agusta, Ducati, Aprilia, BMW). When we did not have a bike that a customer wanted in-stock, we never had a problem locating one from another dealer. If the customer was willing to pay for shipping, other dealers gladly moved product. Granted it's a lot cheaper to ship a 500-lb motorcycle.
It's good business to cooperate with other dealers. Maybe in the car biz things are different, but in the motorcycle business dealers always helped each other out. Nothing was ever asked in return.
