Hey, if any of you are looking to score some accessories or t-shirts or jackets, etc Gengras is shutting down their Triumph/bMw/Duc building.  Everything is gone the end of October.

I'm po' so can't buy any goodies but I saw many 25-50% off signs around.

Are they closing the dealership or just moving to a new building?

How the hell are  you??

Sad to see another Euro-brand dealer going under, but it looks like they have quite a lot of brands in their deck of cards, dealing with cars, trucks, and bikes.  Was it just not profitable enough?

Yes plenty of gear, helmets, jackets, gloves, t-shirts...

Sadly they are closing their Euro shop.  Not moving, nobody else bought it.  They are just going to be a Hardly dealer now Sad

Yea my service guy said they just aren't selling.  Compared to Harley, I believe they aren't selling but come on they deal EVERY brand including Fiat now.  Hell, they moved Triumph/BmW/Duc from their building and put KIA in there.  WTF is wrong with the world today!

I've been to one of their open houses.  What a shame; was a nice place.

Yeah good central hang out but never a great place for service or stuff.  I always felt like they were jacking up the prices.  When I got my service done last year my bike went in with a full tank and came back on empty.
