New MKE Area Duc Dealer......

okay, sorry for the tease, just wanted to get everyone's attention. Please post any rumors, any info at all regarding a new Wisconsin and/or MKE area Duc dealer. Thanks! I'd love a new shop either in Bayview, downtown, or the eastside.

I heard somewhere around 124th and Capitol

Reina? Never did business with them, they always treated me well at their Festa tent..............Just want some good, proven Desmo techs! It'd be nice to check out Ferraris, Ducs, & Guzzis (in that order) whilst dropping off the Duc.

The are is a little too busy for my taste, But sure would be nice to be able to park the Duc next to a Ferrari and take some pics.

Well, I called Corse to see where I should get my bike serviced this winter, and the guy told me to go to MCC in Chicago or to Indianapolis Ducati, so nothing anytime soon, but he said if it can wait "look for a Milwaukee Ducati dealership in March or April". I really would love if it was in Bayview, then I could drop my bike off and just walk home.

I would think that they would think long and hard about the location. It has to be easily accessable. Corse was nice, but really in the middle of no-where. Which could have been a good thing. If DNA is going to front the project, then maybe they should just buy the current building. I remember Lake Country, and they where in a pretty poor location. Not bad, but no parking and like a mom and pop shop. The people who worked there were like us riders. A place where you could go and talk bikes. Corse tried the whole Italia think. And even though it was cool, I personally felt out of place. Not that the staff wasn't super nice, but most people in this area work hard for their money. We dont need to be giving it to someone who needs to pay a high mortage. Fact is, that Ducati's will never be as big as the other 4. But that is what makes me want one. I just wish that the economy would support a dedicated dealer. And that the new owners talk to the riders and find out want is important to us.

Have you guys seen Indy Ducati? I was surprised by it's size, it's about 1/8th the size of corse. But they treated me like a old friend the first time I stepped into their shop. That is the way to go!

I've been following this thread http://www.ducatispot.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18001&page=11 , if this guy is for real, looks like Waukesha.......LAME! Should be in MKE, Bayview, Riverwest, Downtown, the Valley, Walkers Point, anywhere but Waukesha. Well......at least we're probably getting a dealer.
