I was in Bridge in Exeter on friday and it was Quiet but there were plenty of bikes but no customers, but it was just before crimbo. Bridge did pick up andover and southampton at nearly the same time and I don't think they pulled in the cash the same way as the main shop in Exeter did. There will be more dealerships going to the wall in the near future. As for Ducati they do not have Sports bikes that most people can afford or like the look of. They seem to want to concentrate on over priced sports bikes and Bloody retro bikes. I have to admit if I can't find a 998 next year at the right price for me, I will jump back to a jap bike, Despite of my Love for Dukes. |
