It is not really a case of what classes. It is a case of how much financing (think in terms of millions) you can get for opening a dealership somewhere. First you need a location-busy locations are costly for rent and rarely come up for sale. Then there is the inventory you must carry-typically for a dealership this is usually about $100,000 in parts alone, then what about accessories and new bikes? You will have remodeling to do to any building you find and employees to pay who, depending on where you are, may be sitting on their hands from November (the end of ATV sales) thru till about April (the start of bike sales season). That unsold inventory is costing you money sitting there. That building is still costing a monthly mortgage or rent and the employees need to be paid.
