Local dealership had a bike advertised that I was really interested in. Called to discuss it with them. Called back and put down a deposit to hold the bike until I could get there the next day. They accepted my deposit and seemed glad to do it. Went to get the bike only to be told that they had SOLD the bike to someone else! Guess that proves what kind of people they are, dishonest with no integrity! Be careful with some dealerships!

I bet they had already sold the bike before you gave them your deposit. Ya know, the old bait and switch thing…did you get your deposit back and who was the dealer?

 If you are riding and it is a must that you keep your eyes on the road, you are riding too fast.
