Default DK Motorcycles. What's the story?

Called at DK Motorcycles in Stoke on Saturday &, to how the place normally is, it was empty.
All of the clothing has gone, where the Suzukis used to be is now full of cars for sale & where they used to have the 2nd hand cruisers is full of tatty old breakers.
I spoke to someone at the Triumph dealership & they said that DK has lost the Suzuki agency as well & that the owner is setting a DK America up in California.
Could this be the end of DK?

Used to walk around it many an afternoon spare from Uni (Keele) however always thought they were way overpriced on the ticket.

Not been there for a few years but was surprised that they had so many sales for the tat that they had on the showroom floor.

I saw the sign in there, but I thought that they sold more than the Frank Thomas stuff I could be wrong.

They haven't gone, it just looks as though half of the sales stock has gone. It's a skeleton of it's former self lol.
