We will be closing the business permanently on October 31, 2009. We are liquidating all remaining parts, accessories, riding apparel and more! If you can see it ... it's for sale!

It has been our pleasure to serve you and we wish you all the best! CSBK Staff

This just sucks. Where else can we go to drool over exotic European bikes while chatting with a super-friendly staff?

AFAIK they're the only Ducati/Aprilia/MV Augusta/KTM (streetbike) dealer in the state. What a shame. However, according to a former employee I knew, they operated 10 of 12 months of the year at a loss. So I guess it was only a matter of time.

RIP Corse!

fuck.

'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.

Ya, but now the nearest love is Chicago Cycle. When do you want to go and pay your respects? I'm off all next week.

 

[boner]

maybe we can ride up next saturday.

i had no idea they were bleeding money, maybe if the were closer to milwaukee...

 

[KawTipping]

Chicago Cycle? Fuck that place!! Word has it that there will be a new Ducati dealer by spring. Hopefully it is closer to Milwaukee than Madison though. Perhaps Reina will pick up Ducati like they did Aprilia?

Don't tease, it's not polite.

Corse has been incredible,prolly won't be another for some time:bowdown
Thanks to Virgil and the whole staff for being a major,major piece of Wisconsin cycling.We are all proud to have had them for as long as we did,but I'm certain at least Ducati for sure will have a point open somewhere locally by spring.Who know,maybe now that it's public,a potential new owner or owner group my step in.It aint' over till it's over but this is sad for sure.

Wow, I'm shocked to hear this. By far the best dealership I've ever step foot into.

 

[ADR3NALINE FIX]

I always heard great things about them, and never thought they were hurting for money.

 

[Teej]

Well...my first clue that something was up was when they started carrying suzuki...after spending some time up there myself I didn't think I'd ever see anything non-euro in there. Clearly that route didn't pay the bills.

Definitely bummed to see them go.

 

[Andro5.0]

I'll second the thumbs down on Chicago cycle after the runaround they gave a friend when he bought his bike at the bike show. Really hope some one does pick up the slack within the next year, been itching for a v-twin pasta rocket for awhile now(mmmmm RSV.......:leghump) and Corse would have been a long enuff haul for service.:a2

 

[inpayne]

damn

 

[Shazzbot112]

wow, sucks... awesome dealership with very knowledgeable people and lots of stuff to drool over ha ha, hate to see them go.

 

[Bill Clinton]

Bad news. Bought my TLS and all my gear from them this spring. Great people.

Corse had the mantra "Nobodies special, but everybody's special." Thought it was the classiest dealership I've ever been to, they treated everybody with the same respect. When I showed up for the first time, a starving college Junior on a clapped out, spray bombed 1989 Ninja 600R - I was given the royal treatment, including a tour of the race shop. I later found out the gentleman that gave me the tour was the owner.

I think we can learn a lot from Corse.

As you can see from my signature - Corse have been friends and supporters of mine. They will be dearly missed.

 

[inpayne]

I agree, even though I am poor on a broke ass bike they still gave me a second look. To bad I didn't get to buy more stuff vs the drooling.

Great deals when stuff was on sale though.

 

[Brockster]

I picked up a pair of the Dainese full race gloves yesterday from there. It's the first pair I found that actually fit my dick beaters.

I see you went there without me.. fine be that way

 

[streebs93]

Now you pissed off your boyfriend Brock...way to go

 

[Janir]

Damn, sorry to see them go. I was seriously hoping one day I'd geta new bike from them as I've heard nothing but great from them.
