Zombie on that note, I will be taking partial ownership of the shop in Portland sometime next year. I'm planning on doing a promo for Forum members, and price matching anything I can. Some stuff I don't exactly know how the big guys even are making money because it's pennies above dealer cost but anyway, I'll be setting that up fairly soon so members here can have a RELIABLE parts source, someone that actually works on and rides Kymco. Progress will be updated.
B&L,
That is pretty cool news indeed!
(But, before we get too much further along here - sorry for what OSU is going to do to your Ducks. Your team seems like nice guys even if they dress funny....is that color actually mildew from all the rain?!)
Sounds like you will be taking a big step in '15, scary but exciting. Sure hope it goes well for you! You're a stand up guy (hellsbells - you might even be a cute girl for all we know!) Still, you've been a big help to a lot of folks and your motor-stuff knowledge has always been better than your cooking.
As for selling parts with a dose of backup knowledge in each box...my only question is , will you take PayPal?, and pack my parts in rainproof packaging?
Wishing you the best of luck with your new venture!
(and actually I think the Ducts are going to send us home in an old VW bus)
