We also want to introduce you to the new owner of the dealership. So please join us for a free catered lunch on Saturday, October 26 from 12:00 to 2:00 PM. We truly would like to see you join us. [/SIZE]

My local dealer lost both of there Honda and Yamaha franchises. They now sell used bikes and do service. How long that last remains to be seen. My guess is they are selling off used bike inventory and after that it will be over. This is what happens when kids don't go outside to play anymore.

Sad, very sad,

Dave

 
We went through that about 5 years ago. Now things are improving. Local KTM dealer soon to have Honda. Santa Maria dealer (~50 miles) is picking up BMW.

I recall when HD was forcing dealers into mega-mall dealerships. Walker's Cycles in Oregon told me they simply couldn't afford it.

Pops, I have some really good well used bikes I will sell you for maximum dollars.. As you know, I'm here to help! :)
