Gettin’ Lucky

[racinchef]

Though a misleading thread title, I have gotten very lucky at Lucky’s Motorsports in Royalton, VT. We hear many times about a “stealership” someone is unhappy with, but I would like to brag about my local motorcycle dealership. Lucky’s Motorsports deals mainly Yamaha for street bikes, but they are more than willing to help out owners of other brands. Some of the things they have done for me included giving me a loaner for a holiday weekend when they screwed up and ordered the wrong tire for my Valkyrie. My bike’s rear tire had quickly deteriorated and was unsafe by the time I got it to them. I got to enjoy an ’05 Road Star Silverado for three days. Recently, they called Premeux and negotiated dealership status so that I could order my fairing through them and use a special line of credit I have that few other places take. When I found a small puddle of coolant under my bike today, I rode in and asked to make an appointment to have my bike checked and fixed and they looked at it right then and effected an immediate repair until a gasket could be ordered to ensure a complete and proper fix. In the past I have gotten two Mustang seats through them. Kuryakyn Dually highway pegs, J&M headsets, and HJC ¾ helmets with clear and tinted face shields. They allow road tests on certain demo bikes and tolerate weekly visits when I come in and just look around. I only wish that they were a Kawasaki dealership, but you can’t have everything in life. The salesmen are very friendly and don’t hover around you when you come in to look around, but they are usually available to help you and always like talking bikes with anybody. The facility is newly built and really a model of a great powersport dealership. My hat’s off to Lucky’s Motorsports!!!
