I feel like I walked in in the middle of the movie.

That was in reference to another thread. You had to be there.

I think this thread will do more harm than good...The dealer has someone else continuing to handling his business.

I'm not sure I'm ready to pick up the pitch fork and torch just yet...

The guy is a business owner and, I'm assuming, was on his way to handle business at another dealership that only he could deal with.

He hit someones bike, did damage to it, and talked to the owner saying he will fix any damage there is, no questions asked. I don't know the details but I'd like to think that if he talked to the owner on the phone that, at some point, he appologized for hitting the bike.

Accidents happen and yes, the dealership owner should have looked behind his trailer and it would have been better if he stopped. However, I'm not exactly sure I'd go so far to start ripping the guy apart either.

Now, if he DOESN'T fix this guys bike WITHOUT any hassle and DOESN'T make it a top priority then I might march on his castle with you guys but right now, I'm not really feeling the hate.

What would have happened if the person that owned the bike was not actually in the store and had walked around the corner just as the trailer was pulling away?

Must have been something very important...
