    Around here it is hard to even get a quick appointment. All the metric places also sell jet boats and ATVs and stay really busy with that crap, esp jet boats in the summer.

    I can't blame the dealers. They need that other stuff to survive. Motorcycles don't sell like they used to, while snowmobiles and ATVs help get them through the fall and winter.

    I was talking to a guy who used to sell motorcycles at Lakewood Honda, which at one time claimed to be the largest Goldwing dealer in the nation. They've since been sold, renamed, and moved. He described an early summer day in the 1980s, when Honda totally dominated the market. It was a Saturday, and the dealership delivered 11 new Goldwings! It would have been an even dozen, but one customer worked late and couldn't pick his up before closing. How times have changed! These days, many dealers would be thrilled to sell that many Wings in a year.
