I have no evidence for this at all but the feeling I get from speaking to dealers in the UK is that the factory is not running at all well and that they fear that it may all go pear shaped again.

UK sales are well below expectation and spares are getting more and more eratic in delivery from Spain. Weekly deliveries became fortnightly and are now monthly. I was waiting 2 months for a front fender, for instance. This is despite some excellent results from supported riders.

I have yet to see an EC200 in the UK either in a dealer or in the wild. I have a riding buddy who has an EC Ranger in order. He was told 2 weeks delivery but it has been 3 months now. The UK importer is pulling his hair out.
