Default NYC motorcycle shops

I'm going to be in NYC for a couple of days next month (without my bike) and wonder if there are any "must see" m/c related sights/shops in the city? Indian Larry's? 20th Century Cycles?
Thanks in advance for any leads

Wow that is a great question that I have no answer to?? I can't think of one thing that you "need" to see MC related. I would have sent you to Hogs and Heifers but that closed.

Indian Larry is in Brooklyn, if into that you could go there, little museum action etc.

20th Century is cool but way out in Oyster Bay, about an hour drive from Manhattan.

I wish I had something else for you.

It's not in NYC, but you could probably take a bus and then a cab ride to get to it.

Call them and they should be able to give you details on the best way to get there.
Maybe you can find another event like the one below.

If you had a car and the time, this place is worth a visit!
