I saw my local Honda dealer was expanding his show room, so I stopped in to see what inventory they had.
To my surprise, the only new Honda motorcycles in the store were 3 Goldwings and 3 or 4 Honda 50's or 70's.
I asked the salesman why motorcycle sales were down....he said because us old people are the only ones riding. Young people would rather ride them in a video game.
The room was full of 4 wheelers and "side by sides" and he said that is what the new expansion was for...."because that is what's selling."
Sad
I guess I should add this is also a Polaris dealer, but used to be 100% motorcycles.
