| How it all began: | | 1967 Eugene and Fred Cummings purchased the Honda dealership on 19th street in downtown Bakersfield. The dealership was a hit and quickly outgrew the 19th street location. |
Eugene and Fred subsequently moved the dealership to a much larger location on the corner of 26th street and Chester Avenue (pictured above). The Honda Center, as it was known in those days, continued to grow and in 1993 Suzuki and Sea-Doo were added to the product lineup. |
In 1997 the dealership, once again experiencing growing pains, was moved to its current location at the corner of Chester Avenue and 22nd street. The Honda Center was then renamed Fred Cummings Motorsports to accommodate the company's expanding brand lineup which grew to include Honda, Suzuki, Sea-doo, Can-Am (Bombardier), Vespa, Piaggio, and SDG. |
| Fast forward to 2007: |
