It's regular retail store, not a stealership, so I'm certain it's open on Mondays. It's located on Gateway, East side, just South of the Taco Bell and North of the Sizzler (both of which are on the West side of Gateway).

Excellent store. The employees are great to deal with. They contacted a company in Europe to find the leather pants that match my jacket and bike. Awesome customer service!:thumbup:

They are very friendly and helpful, but their pricing isn't always that great on non-sale items.

I've purchased a few things there and generally had good luck, but the last purchase wasn't such a good experience. I ordered pant to match my jacket and the said they would arrive in 7-10 days. I finally got them six weeks later and had to keep calling them to get updates. I'll still do business with them, but only if Cycle Parts or Discount don't have what I need.

They are a big chain.
Supporting our locals is a good thing. :thumbup:

Edwin,
Sucked under what? Trucks? :rolleyes: :idunno: In all my years I've been blown around but never sucked under. :wow8:
Maybe because all my rides have been over 500#? :thinking: Besides if you're that close and in a position where there would be an under draft you're in the blindest spot for all! Get out of there! Don't linger near trucks, time it so you can move past them quickly and stay as visible a possible.:bash:
When on the highway debris, bad drivers and speed judgement are more likely to be problems.
Just my:2cents:
