Leeds Harley Davidson Opening Spring 2012
There is some activity on the website although not much yet:-

Leeds Harley-Davidson Opening Spring 2012! | Harley-Davidson Leeds opening soon

I hear that it will open at the end of March. I have heard some rumours that the dealership will be at the former Leeds HD site across from the Yorkshire Post and others saying it will be at the old Eddy Wrights HD location in Kirkstall.

Interesting 'mock' photos. They show the old store opposite the Yorkshire post building. Went passed yesterday and it's still boarded up. Can't see it opening in the next couple of weeks as everything inside was sold!
We wait with anticipation.

I remember picking my first Sportster out from Eddy Wrights in Leeds. Shame that one shut down. For any oils/filters/parts Chesterfield is right enough for a stealership.

And when it does open all the old hog members[from the last dealer] will have to pay out again, as it will have a slightly differant name.

Eddy sold out to a consortium who did the usual cash before customer routine. Went bust etc etc etc

Eddy has a shop in Shipley, you could visit before the Yorkshire
Party, ( if in UK), selling classic bikes.

Probably sell Volvo, Saab's and British Leyland as their other business.
