Also if you're going to be here on the 23rd there is always the So-Cal Cycle Swap Meet.

Greg do yourself a favor and keep going south another hour to National City in San Diego and Visit "Sonny Angel!" He has been in the same location for the last 1/2 century and when you talk about real bikers....this guy epitomizes just that. He services my Ducati (he’s in his 80’s) and when you walk through his shop it’s like a museum. Personal friend of Burt Munro (Fastest Indian) and he'll be happy to share stories of the days of the Vincent Black Shadow, Ariel Square four and more.
Ride safe, have fun

Dunno how far north you are coming from, but there's Dr. V-Twin in Chatsworth, and in Orange County there's Freedom Cycles (on Katella Ave in Orange, near the Anaheim line). There's also OC Roadhouse, although they moved just over the line outside of the OC... now in Santa Fe Springs.
