They've got too many bikes - the jigsaw puzzle they have to reassemble to get everything back inside one of the showrooms at night is hilarious to watch.

"Maybe we charge too much?"
"Nah, we just need ANOTHER showroom!"

Will the new one have more Authentic Suzuki Trained Mechanics (TM)?

I hope not. And also one of their fitters is ex-alcan so understands the proper fitting.

I've also had it confirmed it can be used for service packages.

Apparently as well according to rumor Dragon Honda were making profit but weren't able to financally support themselves through the winter so folded with it's profit and left. Thunder Road i expect will open up exactly the same stuff and as they've got the other shop will just bank roll themselves with the other shop during next winter.

Hopefully keep SWSB on their feet too.

They're rumored to be opening this weekend too but i'm not 100% sure until i drive past there tomorrow

Yeah, my friend in the 'bran keeps asking if I go riding there as apparently you can't see the hills for the bikers.

Thunder Road Cwmbran is not the best. It's overfilled like the one in Bridgend and is full mostly of new 8-9K hondas which is fine if you can afford that kind of money but they did do some nice indi's which have got me out of a tight spot.
