I wish that manufacturers got the idea that the bike buying process
is VERY different from the car buying process. I like having a
multi franchise shop. I like small hole in the wall shops. It's
very difficult for a good honest guy to make it as a dealer today
because of all of the rubbish. I dealt with a very stand up guy in
Philly for my first few years of riding. Small shop, very individualistic
guy, great service and passion.
It's a real shame. I wish I had the means to open a shop. A Triumph,
Guzzi, MuZ, Laverda dealer would be just the ticket to break me financially.
But it would be a fun ride.
