From what I hear (from several sources), Piaggio treats its' dealers like crap and have pushed several out of business (or at least dropped any products from Piaggio). Several riders have said they love the bikes, hate the brand. Also not a good sign. But things seem to be looking up now (Piaggio sent me a rollerizer kit for the Griso when my dealer sent them photo's of the tappets banging themselves to death - well out of warranty; worth about $1200, when Honda didn't give me the time of day when my XR650L burnt its' self up at 1600 miles due to a dealer or manufacturing problem so personally I think Piaggio is doing OK).
