While I appreciate the fact of a good buy on parts as much as the next guy, we are in the process of having motocross center being blocked, not just for the US market but other markets as well. This business is NOT even a GasGas retail dealer and the prior management at GasGas allowed them to purchase OEM parts at the same distributor costs without the overhead costs of bulk freight, without distribution insurance, and without having to create a profitable margin for dealer and retail alike!
New management at the factory is currently working with their vendors to block external companies such as motocross center from buying the same OEM product at the same OEM purchasing pricing! The new management is also in the process of changing the resale of their OEM parts to non GG distribution centers to be at a much higher cost.
I will be in Spain the last week in May to finalize a lot of these issues so that our dealers can continue to survive and promote GasGas in the US market.
If you are not supporting your US dealer, they in turn are not supporting your local race series or some local racers, as well as working on your favorite GasGas. Does anyone in the US see "motocross center" supporting a D-17 race? Or repairing your electrical issue? Is "motocross center" taking the profits and reinvesting in the offroad industry for the US like so many of our current dealers do?
Your next bike would maybe have to come from Spain as well then, but that I guarantee will be a way higher price, plus Euro vin, homologated and standard version bikes.
