I used to go in Spitzies back in the late 60-70's and drool over the one or two bikes they had on the floor.Most times none. That old house was the coolest dealer I ever went to. It smelled like a shop. The floors creaked and were soaked with oil from leaking primary's that the bakers pans under them didn't catch. Had not been back there till about 10years ago.Long gone the people in the new shop told me. I kinda miss the old days. Sux getting old.

Alot has changed for Spitzies On e the Moco made them get a modern shop it kinda lost that old scholol dealer vibe. The new owners are really trying to turn it into biker hang out and kinda losing some of the Spitzies feel.
