A small dealer network is one of the reasons I won't buy a Ducati, Aprilia, BMW, KTM, or a Moto Guzzi, no matter how good their bikes are. Just something that is important to me, even if I don't use them very often. I learned that lesson the few times I needed my Triumph dealer and from trailering my son's Ducati to and from the nearest Duc dealer hours from our house. As a matter of fact with a Honda/Yamaha dealer with a mechanic I trust within 10 miles of my house, I'd be hard pressed to buy anything other than a Honda or Yamaha.
