Time to switch to harley.
The only single-point dealership I can think of in my area is the Harley folks. And some of their properties are pretty impressive. I admit I'm kinda tempted to stop in just to see if I can figure out what their secret is.The local Yammy and Honda dealers were owned by the same guy, and they have simply combined facilities, closing the Honda place and moving in with the Yammies. Then they bought the Suzie place and took those in, too. Kwak still has their own shop. So the place is Yamaha, Star, Honda, Suzuki, Polaris, and Can-Am. They had to put bigger poles up to add all the signs.
No Harley dealer here, but they're building one, scheduled to open this fall.
It is really not a secret. When you have a lot of loyal riders who are well moneyed, typically 45+ all looking for their better days, freedom of the road along, their own clothing brand, unique styling where the goal is to attract attention via the brand and style you have the formula for success.Time to switch to harley.

2012 Yamaha Raven YZF R6 Going Out Of Business Sale - $8899 (San Juan Capistrano)
Yeah I hear ya. I was in Wyoming last year. Tis the land of antelope, 2001 era Buick Regals and Harley dealers.I was blown away this last summer during our trip across the western US. It seemed as if little piss-ant town had its own Harley dealership, but finding anybody selling Japanese or European street bikes was essentially impossible - there were your occasional dirt biking center full of Japanese brands, but whatever it is that connects Harley with the people living in little towns across the west its obviously working - they must have 90+% share out there!
I've been doing my part, Doug. And a couple of other guys' too.I was told by a former dealer that now days it's the service side that keeps bike shops in businessSpend a few bucks at your local shop when you can.
