I've been there, bought the OL a T-shirt. I'm looking for a full service dealer that sells bikes, has a service dept, and is not part of a larger dealer network but thanks for the suggestion. That's one of things I really like about this forum, people step up when asked for help or info.

You might want to check American Harley Davidson in Leominster MA. Nice dealership with a real mom and pop feel to it. Nice people to deal with. It's the smallest, in terms of square footage, dealership I've been to

The smallest full service Harley dealer I've ever been to
is Wyoming County Harley-Davidson in Varysburgh(sp), NY
It's small but big on talent.

Some of the small shops are going to be offshoots of bigger guys nearby. AZ has a few small ones but they are a conglomerate of one big name.

The smallest real dealer I've been in is Hutchins Harley in Yucca Valley, CA. They, he has a 50s style soda shop in the front of the dealer. He's an old dealer that has been in or around the business for decades. Some of the showroom pictures are incredible. He's got the harley dirt bike and harley scooter on the floor. If you get the chance to meet the old guy you probably wouldn't even know he was the owner. It's probably the smallest store in CA that is a complete store. But I haven't been to them all. Yet.

Great people to work with . Although Pop passed in 2009, Mom still does the books and the kids run the store: http://www.mathewshd.com/about-us.html
I sent this one an email via there "contact us" link explaining what I wanted to do and asking if they were cool with it. Never did get a response. It's been over a week so I'm going to try a couple more. I already registered but can add a "Home" Dealer later if I want to.
