I agree with you all the way. In our many phone conversations we have discussed this in detail. One of the hardest things for me to understand is why organizations such as yours has to deal with the distributor selling bikes directly to the customer in competition with the dealer in his own territory. I do not know if this kind of situation exists in other countries. If so the entire sales structure has broken down and destroys local dealership profit margins and the incentive to become a dealer. It appears from what we have talked about, all of the US importers are guilty of this unfair practice. Things must change.
