Yes, Kevin says that DNA "will" be opening a new dealership in the spring. I wont hold my breath, but I would sure be happy if they did.

So what do u guys think i should do. I can show up barking. But theres no point. Its not my dealership, i never bought a damn thing from them, and i dont expect them to help me. I refused to buy stuff from them, and i thought this would change my mind. but it just reinforces what i think.

Ill give them 2 weeks and then email them again and tell them that i know a bunch of people who got their tanks within days. But other then that, i dont think i have a recourse.

Yeah that's what they told me as well.  It would be nice if one shows up in Milwaukee!  But it does suck, they have a lot of good guys working there now, hopefully they can get on board with the new dealership

I think that DNA may be trying to settle the score with the dealerships that are closeing first. Think about it. If your dealer closes and you are still waiting for a tank, you may just be screwed. That would leave a serious issue for many people. However, if they fix the issues with the closeing dealers, that is one less problem to have to deal with. It may not be right/fair, but this way the unfortunate people can say "well at least I got my tank fixed".

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

My new tank is being installed today - the shop said it would take about a month to get the new tank and we're at just under the month mark.

Donnie got mine in about a month-ish if I remember correctly.     Installed it while my Dad and I ate lunch across the street.

About four weeks after the inspection for Ducati to authorize the replacement, and then about three weeks for the replacement tank to arrive.

I would love to have them install the tank while I wait, but I have to work tomorrow, and can't hang around, even if they were willing to do it first thing in the morning.   So I'll have to make two round trips....  :-(  Tim
