Yeah I overcame the looks a bit .
You didn't barge in & gave them gtam attitude?
Ask do you know who I am? Do you know what I'm worth?
I think it all balances out with stories of "hobo dressed as millionaire".
I went into Endras the same day. Did not have a LP640, just my Ram truck. Walked inside, absolutely no response from any of the sales staff. Finally, I asked where the bikes were, and went downstairs. Once there, I walked over to where they had their bikes on display. I am looking for a 2015 1200gs adventure, 1 is there right in front of me. Looked at a couple of bikes, saw some sales staff at their desks, no customers with them. Looked for a good 10 minutes, no-one got up. I spoke to one of the sales people, he apologizes, tells me they are having a track day and the bike guys are out for the day. He says he does not know anything about bikes, asks me to leave my name and number and someone will call me back. As I write this today, no-one has called me. I might be Joe Average, but I could have loaded my new motorcycle into my truck and drove it home. Or had my wife drop me off and ride my bike home. I guess this will happen at GP bikes with a Multistrada since I could not get the decency of a phone call...not impressed.

Maybe the better way to deal with this would be a simple sign saying "Bike section closed, all of the bike people are away"
+1Go to Wolf BMW London they only sell motorcycles and the owners are awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Forget about the car dealers that dabble in motorcycles they suck!

I have bought 3 GS's from them over the years. Very nice and friendly and when you come in the front door, you will be greeted within minutes. I think they are the only sole BMW motorcycle dealer in Ontario, the rest sell cars as well. Not saying it is a bad thing, but I went to a BMW car/bike dealer a few years back and just to find anyone was hassle and unpleasant experience. If you can make the drive, Wolf BMW is a great place to deal with.

I wouldn't let one sour experience at a dealership depict what bike YOU purchase. Get the bike you truly want, and screw everything in-between.
I know two people who would second this. From what I've heard their service is great and was told to deal with them also. So that's a few people that have traveled to London from a fair distance. That says a lot right there.+2
Same here. Purchased from them. A bit of a drive but totally nice, down to earth and unpretentious ppl to deal with.

Maybe they were outside checking out the car and didn't hear reception paging them?Guess the lovely grey hair,shorts ,t shirt and LP640 gave them the idea I was broke and wasting their time
