Superbikestore.Net new owners

[cozye]

Superbikestore.net is now under the official ownership of Justin DeSantis. Justin is a great guy, an avid motorcyclist, and track day rider. He's been around motorcycles for a long time and is a perfect fit for the business. He's a down to earth regular guy that has a dream, just like I did. He will bring a lot of fresh energy to the website and I'm quite sure he will be successful. I will be assisting him and available to him for some time so he can get acclimated and have a seamless transition.

I wish Justin the best of luck. I ask a favor of everyone and please keep Justin in mind when ordering Pazzo's, Bodywork, Chains, sprockets, Woodcraft stuff, or track related gear. I want to see him succeed and he will bring great service to anyone who deals with him.

You can contact him at justin@superbikestore.net or call the number. Let him know you guys are friends with me and I'm sure he will treat you right.

Thank you guys for the welcome. I look forward to working with you. Since you all know Eric, but don't know me, I thought I'd tell you a little about me.

As Eric said, I'm not just some dude who bought a website to make money. I'm an enthusiast like the rest of you. I've been riding my whole life, dirt bikes as a kid, and sportbikes ever since I was 17 and bought a 1988 Ninja 600R. Currently, I own 6 bikes. My main street/track ride is a Ducati 1098. I also have a CBR 900RR, a 1983 Yamaha RZ 350 in the middle of a frame up restoration, a DR650 dual sport and a couple of Honda scooters.

I started working in the motorcycle industry in 1996 as a tech at a Honda/Yamaha/Harley dealer. I moved into sales, and eventually switched jobs to service manager at a BMW/Ducati/Triumph/KTM/Vespa dealership. Last year, I left the industry and my day job is now in sales in the home improvement industry. But I missed working with motorcyclists. So when I was alerted by a friend that Eric's site was for sale, I got very interested. 2 weeks ago, I wasn't even considering buying a motorcycle related business. Now I officially own one, talk about a change of pace.

My plans for the site are to pretty much keep it how it is for now. By all accounts, Eric did a great job with it and seemed to keep his customers happy. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. I'm going to try to run it pretty much as he has and continue to offer you guys the service and prices you've come to expect. I will be adding a Twitter account and Facebook page just to have a real time way to communicate with customers and let them know about any specials happening. Other than that, it will be business as usual. I welcome suggestions and feedback.

Thank you all for the support and welcome, I look forward to working with you.
