Default Dealer closings

Owner of my shop said domestic production is 1/2 of what it was in 2006-2007 and nationwide 50 dealers are gone.

welcome to my world. closest dealer is 50 miles one way. next closest is an hour and a half from my home, of course in a different direction than the other dealer which puts them about 3 hours apart.....

needless to say, i don't usually just pop in on a saturday morning for the coffee and donuts

Wow. I guess I should feel pretty good then. I have 4 within 30 minutes and 4 more within an hour. Luckily the closest wants to beat all of them so I don't have to go too far.

Im thinking Carson City HD may be the next to go. Poor customer service = poor business plan.

Guess I'm lucky also, there have been 2 in my area that closed, but still 4 that I can think of that are close.

This is bad news. They were very good to deal with and would deal on new bikes.

That's too bad. That's where I bought my bike. I knew something was up when mos of their staff started working at the west coast connection in Stockton.
