But anyway, since there's nothing there despite the post by MD saying there should be one open, I started a new poll for new communities. Go ahead and vote on it if you guys want to show this interest in a more obvious way than a bunch of liked posts.

Sportbike Track Gear is where I saved 75% off MSRP on a Bell helmet. It was 35% off REV'IT! stuff at Revzilla a couple months ago. Bison Motorsports, Ryca Motors, and Dime City Cycles have sales on all sorts of less "mainstream" parts and accessories pretty frequently.
My point was that unless they are collabs or someone is willing to make an unusual deal, it's hard to beat the regularly discounted prices on good stuff that a lot of online dealers already have relative to MSRP, and MD is questionable in their discounts over MSRP and other competitors regular pricing across the site (just had a knife selling here for $1 under the regular price at Knifeworks despite being $10 under the Amazon price, so Amazon is definitely not their only, and in the case of moto stuff, likely not even good competition in prices).
Not that I don't want to see them try to get things like CRG (though myself and my local dealer greatly prefer the Joker Machine mirrors we use to CRG), Motogadget, maybe some Dynojet stuff, etc. I just don't expect it to happen. Gear collabs seem way more achievable than straight drops in terms of actually being worthwhile.
But yeah, I see what you’re saying. Thats sort of how the Auto community is here. Not many drops, but what happens is... well, disappointing actually, but decent drops relative to retail for the things we see nonetheless. I mean, I got a waaaaaay nicer torque wrench than the one that dropped here for not a lot more money.
While I doubt we’ll get a moto community, though I don’t see much reason not to, maybe we can get some decent moto stuff showing in the auto community if nothing else.
Biggest issue I see is the diversity of motorcycle stuff. Gear seems easier to move to lots of people. I doubt I use the same oil or spark plugs a lot of you guys use. Tires, bulbs, etc. All sort of personal and hard to push to many people all at once.
