My Honda Dealership Vanished!!!

[sblt500r]

dc, when i used to go to bettencourts, i would only talk to dave. he seemed to know everything. still had the high prices, but that was before i had internet! i was there the other day just to look around, and one of the owners showed and told us about all the race bikes out back. must have been a slow day! the blue atc90 on the wall looked brand new, other than the dust all over it! oh and there boreing does suck. they screwed up my lt500 cylinder, and you can't do anything about cause you sign a form incase they screw up!

when brockton cycle went out of business, i got some good deals on tires. got some $120 tires for $30. i would never pay $120 for a tire!

Dave died this spring/summer, then things got really bad fast.....

Thats great you got into Brockton and nabbed some stuff! That was the RUDEST dealer around, IMHO.

They had chicks there that wouldn't look at you, thats not including the ones that don't look at ya elsewhere I hated going in there.

Good boot sales though.....

my local honda dealer haas great prices but don't dare mention anything to paul the owner he can't get you out the door fast enough, his wife on the other hand is absolutley wonderful, and goes out of her way to help and give the best price she can , and still make a lil profit, so I understand both ends of the argument, never the less I only go there when paul is not in, when I need to order any parts

I'm with DC.. Most stealerships I've dealt with are ridiculous.. I always get the vibe if you dont ride the latest greatest overpriced machine, and beg them the sell you all the overpriced cookie cutter add ons they stock then you arent worth their time... I cant see how anyone at a bike shop could have a poor attitude... I can only dream of having a job working with bikes and trying to help others... If the shops weren't rediculously overpriced on everything, including the $80+ per hour rip off clown mechanic rate, maybe most riders wouldnt shop online or send thier engines across the country to get worked on.. I feel if a business cannot succeed without rip-off tactics then they deserve to fail.. I do like to support local owner/operator businesses, especially when they seem to appreciate my patronage.. 200x michigan.. sorry to hear about the loss of your dealership, it sounds like they were actually staffed with quality people.
