The multi-line Ducati dealer wouldn't reduce the price for cash-in-hand. He's out of business.

Brampton Cycle. They had no concept of customer service. Bought my first bike there in '84 and never went back after a warranty issue.

The end of their life? I heard about them as long as I've been in the riding community

And granted they may have deals for the sales reps to go such amount of sales financed for a bonus OR they'd rather just get the kickback from the financier's altogether even if they have short-sited math that they think works in their favor.(*IE- thinking their kickback will be more profit than a payoff cash sale) |

First place I ever saw a duc in person. I was very young at the time, but fell in love right away.

Service lost ya. Oddly enough John McBride now operates a little performance/accessories shop called Riders Choice in south Mississauga, that is very well respected and does good work.
