BMW Motorrad market share falling in the US. Why?

[Grumpy Goat]

i am not sure why sales are dropping in the US but over in England BMW have been clever to use celebrities and others to show off their bikes especially the GS we have a good selection of dealers reasonable close as we are a small size country. are you just in London or are you going to travel to the nicer parts of the UK

I am not at all surprised that BMW does much better in the UK (and in Europe) where the motorcycling culture is so very different.

Unfortunately I am just in London until Tuesday evening when I begin the trek back home. One of these days I will visit England properly, and that that I don't mean London. London has one thing going for it as far as I am concerned - good food. But besides that can't really stand the place for traffic, overcrowding and the god-awful cost of everything.
