Be Seeing You
My local BMW dealer is beginning to work on me. In the past, I have purchased my tire pressure gauge, my bright yellow Olympia Airglide Bushwacker jacket and grey pants, and just had my Autocomm headsets installed into our helmets there. This dealer has met my needs in these areas with great customer service. I am finally in the market for some "real" MC riding boots and am considering the Matrix line. The dealer has an Italian line of boots (they don't know who makes it) and he wants me to try theirs. Even more interesting, he wants me to take out an R1200RT for a ride. I cannot afford any new bike and their prices on most things are on the high side but not unreasonably so. I have felt that BMW uses their customers as the test bed for working out engineering problems more than most manufacturers yet remain somewhat arrogant about their products.I won't buy a new bike but I will continue to use them as a source of quality gear when appropriate. I really love the ST1300 and have no need to change my current ride. I am not convinced of any german superiority vs. Honda innovation and quality control. However, it is nice to have an customer oriented MC dealer to access when needed for certain accessories.
Does anyone else use their local BMW dealer for riding items even though they don't own a Beemer?
