Friendly visit to the dealer yesterday
#1
I was out riding yesterday and decided to say hello at the dealership where I bought my CB. I've dealt with them before and am somewhat friendly with the staff. My salesman worked at a kawi dealer prior to working for honda. Where I bought another bike. So I stopped in and as I pulled up on the bike one of the guys said no way and immediately came up to me and said I can't believe its the same bike. The other salesman came out and started laughing and said I know you, it didn't take long for you to start with the mods and goodies. They were amazed in how much a small fairing, a new seat, some mirrors, exhaust, engine guards and some other stuff can really change the look of the bike. They both wanted to sit on it and take pictures. One of the guys said that he has a customer interested in the other 2014 in the showroom and was convinced he will sell the bike after showing him pics of my bike. They both spent a good 15 min outside looking and talking about my bike. Such a good feeling to see their reaction. One of them said if he didn't already have two bikes that he would buy it himself.

I would conduct as much of my business as possible with a dealer that good. Good ones are as rare as common sense.
