New England Cycle Center in Hartford revealed this morning that it’s adding the Kawasaki line, while simultaneously confirming an item posted here nearly a month ago that Midtown Kawasaki in Rocky Hill was apparently getting out of the business.
“We expect bikes on the floor after the first of January,” said New England Cycle Center sales manager Steve Marquardt. “We’re going to turn the world upside down with Kawasaki.”

New England Cycle Center already sells Suzuki, Yamaha and Victory motorcycles. Midtown Kawasaki only sold Kawasakis. New England Cycle Center bought that business. “While we did not purchase their property, we did purchase their business,” said Marquardt.
“We hope to fill a gap for Kawasaki customers. With more strength and size, we hope to provide great service and expand our customer base,” Marquardt added.
