Tire purchase story

[billsim]

They promise you anything just to get your bike in their shop.
And then they start working on it and quit in the middle of the job to get the next victim in.
They only stock the little things, oil, filters, plugs.
They won't order anything till they have the bad part in their hands.
They have more accessories on the shelf than parts.
The best money is in new sales and acc's.
If they didn't have to do warranty work, they wouldn't have a shop.
Harding cycle in Canton Ohio, They close at noon so the employe's can take lunch. Don't open back up till 2:30.
The show room has maybe a dozen bikes. More side by sides than anything else. All the sales staff are sitting at there desks.
I stared straight at one for 5 minuets before he called me over to his desk.
I walked over to hm and kept going out the door. With a smile of corse.
Theres more to the story, but you get the picture.

Was just in there last week. Showroom is about 90% empty. Service seems to have 1 or 2 mechanics and has a 12 week wait for service appointments. Salesmen just sitting around playing on the computer....The parts department guys were working their asses off.

They gave me the feeling of dealing with a backyard mechanic, not a professional Honda dealership. As I said, I don’t know they stayed in business this long. Will, I hear you there. All I can say is I won’t be back, guarantee that.
