V-Twin bought out the 2 CycleSport dealerships about a year or so ago in the northern Va area. CycleSport is a multi-franchise Jap bike dealer. Well, shortly after the purchase Kawasaki revoked both franchises. Apparently they Kawasaki won't let a publically held corporation own a franchise.
Another 2 location multi-franchise jap bike dealer (Coleman) was bought out by some other conglomeration. They not only lost their Kawasaki franchise, but one of the locations lost their Honda franchise as well. Ouch, that's going to hurt the bottom line. On the good side these two places (Coleman) were staffed by the biggest bunch of A-holes the motorcycle world has ever had in one place. May they all lose their jobs and have to live under a bridge.
