Dealership Opinnion in Northern NJ
Anyone have any experience with Hanover Honda in Whippany NJ?

I want to go to a dealership near where I work in Parsippany to look around and just want to know if anyone has any good or bad experiences with them?

Re: Dealership Opinnion in Northern NJ
Well I don't know if it has to do with my age or what (24), but it took a sales man 25 minutes to finially come over and ask me if I needed help. At that point I finially said "Not any more" and left. They have a decent show room and accessories, but their sales people are snobs / not helpful / don't know anything. I've been there 3 times and everytime I leave pissed off. One time I was looking at a 919 and asking some basic questions, not only did the sales person not know any answers, he kept trying to push a 600RR on me.

If you're going there to just look around, I don't see why not. But if you want to ask any questions, find a different dealership.

I have no desire to speak to a salesman today just want to go look around and kill time on my lunch hour. So if you say they have a decent showroom maybe I will just have to go check it out.

Re: Dealership Opinnion in Northern NJ
Well I tried Hanover Honda last week since according to mapquest was the closer dealer to my job. Nice place and nice showroom but after being there for 15 minutes waiting to talk to someone I finally walked out.

I will have to find RT.15 powersports and go check out what they have there. Do they stock a decent amount of used bike or mainly only new stuff?

depends on the time of the year and what people are dropping off. call them and ask. i think the exit off of 81 is 34b (RTE 15N) then follow it for about 5 miles, it is the turn after you see the texaco on the right after you pass pathmart, mcdonalds in the left "island" pretty easy to get to.

if you want a shop with a LOT of resells try the honda/ducati/triumph near freehold. they are a volume dealer ans WILL give you a better deal, that is where I bought my 929

I have been to freehold many times and have bought a few things from them. A buddy of mine actually bought his F4i from them last yr. Nice place as well as a pretty good bunch of guys from what I can tell anyway

If you go to Freehold ask for Kevin or Steve.

I think Steve is the guy who sold my friend his bike and Kevin if I am not mistaken I spoke to last time I was there when I went looking at the 954's
