There’s no doubt that gasoline prices are now at record highs and may go even higher if some industry experts are to be believed. (How far is that three or four dollar gallon of gas getting you now)? What better time to shop for a motorcycle that is not only energy efficient, but fun to drive too!
Thunder Road Motorcycles and Accessories is a relatively new business that has re-opened after being closed for the winter. It’s located at 13159 US Highway 160 which is just past Highway H. I stopped there this date and was amazed to find a super clean showroom loaded with bikes as well as other gear such including helmets shirts and pants.
While I was there I met a gentleman named David Jacobs who was nice enough to show me around. David knows his stuff and has worked on bikes for many years. He explained to me that not only do they sell cycles, but they also service them at that location! That was a big plus in my book. He also mentioned that they plan to carry metrics which are often much less expensive than the Harley line. I noticed he had a nice V-Rod for sale which looked to be in excellent condition as were all the used bikes on display that day.
If you have time, be sure and stop by to say hi to Kenneth and to look around. Thunder Road can be reached by calling 417-546-2453.
Update: After trying to reach this venue in March 2013, I found the number to be disconnected! Also, a friend informed me that the business had apparently closed.
Pictured at right is a 2007 V-Rod that appears to be in excellent condition.
