Within the last 4 years I have seen my 3 nearest dealerships (Kelowna, Spokane, Chilliwack) all close or stop selling Guzzi. For spare parts I now deal mainly with Corsa Meccanica in Toronto (by mail obviously). How Piaggio is expecting to sell more bikes in Canada is beyond me. Or perhaps they don't really care? Such a shame because Moto Guzzis are truly unique and great motorbikes!!
Yeah, insane.
George of Corsa Meccanica really hung in there and is absolutely committed to Piaggio and all of its subsidiaries. His Guzzi inventory is usually spectacular. The Moto Guzzi, Aprilia, Vespa, etc. (Piaggio) Canadian supply chain dried up back in 2011, partly due to some sort of corruption and mismanagement. So Canada depended on the Piaggio U.S. to supply parts. It hurts to hear that Piaggio U.S. is inconsistent. Piaggio Italy is really messing up their U.S. market.
Two Wheel Motorsport of Guelph, Ontario is the other "major" source of Guzzi nearby that I am aware about.
