We are working hard to get our products into local dealers. That is our main goal right now because we know you want to see the products before buying them.

There is a shop in your general area that has shown interest in carrying our products. I will get back to you with that name and I will contact them, too. If these dealers hear from customers that they want to see our products - that really encourages the dealers to carry our products.

I spoke with 2 different dealers today who are interested because their customers have suggested they carry us.

We are currently offering new dealers a good incentive to carry our products, so we're trying.

In the meantime, if there are no dealers in your area anytime soon, you can always return any of our products if you receive them and they don't work or you don't like them.

Thanks for your interest.

Here are the current dealers carrying our products:
~ Dudley Perkins Company - South San Francisco, California, Harley-Davidson, Buell, Motorcycle, Dealer, Used, Parts, Accessories, Apparel

~ Hall's Harley-Davidson® in Springfield, IL offers a large selection of quality, new and used Harley-Davidson® motorcycles, parts, accessories and offers Harley® maintenance.

~ Las Vegas Harley-Davidson®, Las Vegas, Nevada

~ Low Country Harley-Davidson® in Charleston, South Carolina offers a large selection of quality, new and used Harley-Davidson® motorcycles, parts, accessories and offers Harley® maintenance.

~ Oakland Harley-Davidson® - Bay Area - Oakland, California Harley-Davidson Motorcycle Dealership - Learn To Ride Here

~ Patriot V-twin Motorcycle Parts and Accessories, Kingman, Arizona - Great stop along Route 66. Carrying our Harley, Victory and Metric products. Website coming.

~ Renegade Classics Baltiimore, Middle River, Maryland - Biker Outlet: Harley Davidson Tshirts, Motorcycle Jackets, Chaps, Helmets and Patches in Baltimore

~ Road Dog Customs, Sante Fe Springs, California - Customizing Motorcycles and Making Bikers' Dreams Come To Life Since 2004

Brukus for my saddlebags. With a little locktite. It's just habit when I put anything on the bikes.

The dealer that showed interest in our products is Biker Bobs in Taylor, MI. I'm going to give them a call tomorrow.

Also, I will be following up on Brighton H-D, which evidently has merged with Ann Arbor store. I bought my Road King at the AA store.

Glad to hear that, they're just down the road from me. Another big dealer in the area is Motor City HD in Farmington Hills.

But I pulled the trigger and ordered the puck when I saw you only had one left in stock. In fact, it came in the mail today as I was headed out the door for work, so I won't be able to install it till Sunday or Monday.

It doesn't usually happen quickly, anyway. Probably be at least a week before they actually place the order and that means probably 2 weeks before they actually have stock. And they may not carry everything. Sometimes it takes customers requesting certain products for them to carry them.

Thanks for the recommendation to Motor City. I will call them this week. And if you put in a good word for us and encourage them to carry us - we offer $35 in product to you when they place their first order. It helps a lot for customers to recommend us, to say the least...

Also talking to Brighton. Bought my bike and took Riders Edge at Ann Arbor.

Let me know how the KickShoe works! Anxious to hear.
