Because I want to help my fellow riders out. I was looking at a Gunship Grey RoadGlide Special. I was offered the bike at $29,145 in Colorado. They offered me a red RoadGlide at $1k below that, so $28,145 for a red RoadGlide. They have a 2018 CVO in Gunship Grey. I offered $32k for the bike and they refused. Some food for thought; you can take a brand new 2022 RoadGlide Special and drop a crate motor (131ci) for ~$6300. $29k+$6300= $35k... and that bike would be more bad ass than a used 117ci 2018 CVO w/ 10k miles on it. Just because they are asking it doesn't mean you have to pay it. There are 100's of dealers in the US, plus the road trip and ride home would be worth it. Do your research first before buying a bike. Nice guys; but I'm not here to make friends, I'm here to buy a bike. Cheers!!! In response to "Timmy's" response. Deserve a two star review??? That's not customer focused. How about you'd like to "earn" my business. And please share with me the accolades that you're one of the best dealers in the country, considering I've rode across country on three different bikes to multiple dealers. Trust me, you have a lot of room for improvement. Now, your salesmen were friendly, I'd give you that. But your prices on a used CVO are not competitive. By the way, it's still for sale. And the $29k was for a RoadGlide Special, not standard. Add a 131ci and a stereo system, it's still under the price of the CVO. Paint you say? I could drop $2k on a new paint job that would blow the CVO away and still be under your asking price. So Timmy, if you'd like to earn my business on a USED CVO that's still sitting in your showroom (and with the way the market is heading, will likely be there for a while).... Let me know. Cheers!! read more

I decided to take a riding course and choosing Desert Wind Harley Davidson was the best decision in my book! Before starting I was given a tour of the dealership by Bobby! He showed me around and got me hyped for my class by teaching me basics on their simulator. Bobby also took time to seat me in as many bikes as I wanted to get an idea of what to look for in choosing a bike that best fits me! He was so vibrant and made me feel like part of the family. I would sign up again just for the experience and the way I was celebrated. The course is well organized and I was set up for success with updates and important info before I started! My course instructors Ken and Chelsea were an absolute joy and very informative. While you learn at an appropriate pace they pay close attention to ways each individual can better perfect their skill and really fine tune you to be an excellent rider. I felt very comfortable, confident and encouraged the entire time with their guidance! In reality I was so sad it was over, it was such a great experience! read more

Desert Wind always have their sales for full with whatever you might want. I saw a El Diablo sitting on the sales floor for sale. Wow! So many options in clothes, accessories, parts, and Harley-Davidson memorabilia. Blows me away every time I visit. My friend had to get service on his Harley he bought here. A riders training course is fantastic, because so many people want to learn. read more

Terrible ...buyers be ware... if you decide to sell it or " pay it off early which @ 13 % interest you should, then the nightmare begins. the finance dept, extended warrantee, gap insurance, and the dealership all pass the buck around and don't communicate with one another so if you want to get bike paid off takes 2 weeks to clear they're process to get title, which gets sent to ADOT and not you the owner. if you decide to sell it then have to call multiple numbers to get credit back for the extended warranty and gap insurance, then you find out that 3K non refundable .. Terrible business practices and no way to treat bikers...READ the fine print.... My mistake I trusted them and then found out the real facts...Buy a bike outside this dealership they suck... read more

don't bother buying form this dealership. there a far better dealership. with far better customer service. The tires for life and VIP service is not worth the money. service department never answers the phone. over all the poorest customer service I've ever seen. inwill never recommend the dealership to anyone. read more

Nate, what a guy! What a salesman! He definitely made me smile and giggle and enjoy the wait for paperwork. And I am not a fan of sitting and waiting. He deserves more stars than 5. The dealership is clean, huge and definitely has something for everyone. The purchase experience was long by my standards but it is thorough. Each department we met with had personable employees! If we ever need to buy yet another bike.... We would go back. read more

Mark is an amazing person he's really cool and will answer any questions you have. I highly suggest Ken he's very sweet and patient Coach. read more

Regarding the Riding Academy, Albert, Frank, and Mark were awesome coaches and my time learning from them was very pleasant. They were very patient, easy going, and their sense of humor made learning fun. They truly want you to succeed while being safe and their wisdom has proven to be very valuable. Especially here in the valley where fellow motorists are on the wild side! Thank you coaches and thank you Harley-Davidson! read more

Desert Wind Harley-Davidson took great care of my business as a learning rider. I am young so I was nervous at first. But as I got more comfortable in the course the coach Andy led my class to graduation. Not only did I learn a valuable lesson, I left with an experience of what it is being on a Harley-Davidson .. would totally recommend the riders course if you are thinking of purchasing one. read more

I have to say, purchasing a bike from DW was a great experience! I worked with Ray to purchase my 2020 Road Glide special patriot. I had the family with me and he was fantastic with the kids! One of the best parts of working with him was bringing him back a Coca Cola... you have to meet him and ask about it! HAHA Working with Carlos to pick all the added parts was an amazing experience as well! He took his time to help me pick all the right parts to have added to the bike pre-delivery. He kept me updated as items came in and was excited with me as it was getting closer to completion! I feel he knows my bike up and down at this point! HAHA! Great team to work with at Desert Wind H-D! read more

The people at desart wind are nice until you buy something. I bought 2 bikes from them not even a year goes by and 7 codes come up and they say become I don't start my bike enough then I have the VIP and had it in to get fixed and asked for the detail get it back still spots on it they had it 1week read more

I tried multiple times and multiple different ways of asking questions before buying a new Street Bob. It was like pulling teeth to get email responses or returns to phone calls. I showed up at the dealership right when they opened on sat mornings twice and it was annoying to say the least. Nobody was interested in selling me a new bike. They always pushed for a used bike they had in inventory. At one point i almost settled on a dead wood green street bob 114 they had in stock ( had a few upgrades that werent really my thing, but whatever) The sales guy went to get info on the bike and never came back. I found him 15min later helping a different customer. I picked up my daughter and we left. My friend bought a blue street bob from desert wind a few weeks before this and he had similar issues getting help buying a new bike but stuck it out with them because they had what he wanted in stock. read more

Always a terrific experience at DWHD. Thank you Yvonne Holmes for your incredible event coordination ~ we love the events!

I don't usually give 5 stars... especially for a random Harley dealership! So, I'm riding to AZ bike week from San Diego, and my motor broke down in Mesa, after a 3 hours highway ride (failing oil pump / sumping leading to cam damage etc... My motor almost seized). I was quite upset (make sure you read my review of BIGGS Harley Davidson in San Marcos, CA to understand why I was so very upset...) but lucky enough to be welcomed and taken care of right away on a Thursday later afternoon (about 30 mins before closing time). The service representative (John aka "JJ") took care of me right away (and remember, it was during AZ bike week...), had a technician come and take a listen at my motor immediately. Blake, the technician, confirmed that there was a serious issue and recommended me not to ride any further. I left my bike and ubered to my hotel. They took care of my bike the day after, first thing in the morning! Opened my motor and confirmed the damage. They were so friendly going though all details with me, showing me used/worn off parts, explaining the rebuild process and helping me to deal with HD warranty and my "local" dealership in San Marcos. Blake is clearly an extremely competent technician who loves building motors. I trusted him right away (I've been riding *a lot* for the past 25 years...) They got my bike built back within 2 days after receiving all parts (HD corporate were the ones slowing down the process, it took about 2 weeks before they could rebuilt my motor). I am so happy with the service and the treatment I received. No other dealership made me feel more welcomed, no one else has ever been so helpful and friendly. I got my motorcycle back after 3 weeks (had to be shipped back to California). The bike feels good, sounds good. They've done a superb job, and provided an amazing support. TWO THUMBS UP for JJ and Blake. read more

Desert Wind has the best employees that really make attending any event and being a vendor at an event smooth and easy. Yvonne Holmes does a wonderful job of setting up events and coordinating and communicating what to expect and be able to enjoy the events. Such a great dealership set up and always great event. Thanks Yvonne for the awesome job you do! read more

Mark Weiss and his Riding Academy coaches at Harley Davidson are amazing AND PATIENT! Worked with Ken and Andy and Mark in the New Riders course and they got me from a complete newbie who could just put on a helmet and who only sat on the back of a bike to learning the components of how to start a motorcycle, learn the workings of braking, throttle, clutch, riding with others, as well as learning how and practicing life saving safety maneuvering, riding in rain conditions and of course, wanting my own motorcycle. . Our days were split between classroom education and actual hands on on the bike riding. The level of education was in-depth, not only as a rider on a motorcycle but it made me evaluate myself as a driver as well. I'd be very interested in taking further classes forum Desert Wind. Also had a good experience with Mike in sales as he showed me how to use the jump start bike and we talked about potential motorcycles I'd want. I've been buying things from this shop for over a year, and the clerks have always been nice. read more

Great team at Desert Wind HD. Bought a 2022 Road Glide Limited yesterday and the experience was top notch. My sales guy, Jerry, was very knowledgeable and patient. I never felt pressured, and Jerry made sure that my family and I were comfortable while going through the process. Amir in financing went all in to work me a deal to get me on my bike. He did not over promise and was up front about my options. Joseph in service was another rock star. His team took car of transferring parts from my old bike to the new one and got it done while I was there. The ladies in clothing were great as well. Smiles galore and very attentive to my needs while working with them. All in all, the experience Desert Wind HD was pleasing. They have a great team that is friendly and professional. I definitely recommend them. read more

I looked around for a while for a basic rider course that I felt would be a good fit for me. I eventually decided on the one here and Desert Wind, and I couldn't be happier that I did. My coaches (Albert and Luz) were amazing and are some of the best people I've met. It's clear they are here for you because they want you to be the best rider you can be. Mark Weiss is very helpful and was able to get me into an earlier class when someone rescheduled, which was a major help. All in all I can't recommend this course strongly enough. You guys rock! read more

I took the Basic Riding Course this last weekend with Great Coaches, Chelsea, and Kelly, and Thanks to Mark Weiss for great communication up to and including the class. Thank You for your Guidance and Patience! Made the whole endeavor an enjoyable and rewarding experience. would recommend to anyone wanting to learn the basics safely and get their license. read more

Jerry was great, helped out a lot. Wouldn't of been able to get the bike I wanted without him

STAY AWAY!!! Just got my bike back after an A-Clean. Took them 5 days to disclose that they "found damage" after they cleaned it. It's a crack in the saddle bag that goes all the way through. In a nutshell, since I can't prove that it wasn't there, it's on me. But according to the service writer, I can use some flex seal to fix the damage. I still have some prepaid services there but will write them off as a loss because it's not worth risking more issues. read more

Desert Wind Harley-Davidson - The crack in my saddlebag - Motorcycle Dealers Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

My wife and I have been traveling this great United States for the past 18 months. We sold our bikes back in MN and hit the road. Last month we decided to settle in Phoenix area of Chandler. We told ourselves when we did settle, we would get back in the saddle as it were. Yesterday we went to Desert Wind Harley dealership and purchased a new 2024 Road Glide. thru out the whole purchasing process Jeff Johnson was patient and answered all of our questions. He showed us all the 2024 options and explained each ones strengths and possible weaknesses. we felt heard and given honest answers. He then brought the rest of the team around us as needed to complete the sale and answer any question he didn't have the answer to. Start to finish it was great experience. The bike handles like a dream. we couldn't be happier. Thank you Desert Wind Harley. Let's ride. read more

DW HD is amazing to work with and we always have such a great experience working with Yvonne Holmes and TC! If you need to buy a bike they are the place to go or if you are a food vendor they are also amazing to do events for! read more

Kimberly Case is awesome at being the Motorclothes Manager. Every time I've needed extra help with finding or getting an item that Harley carries but I couldn't find, she did for me! She ordered a purple vest I wanted and stayed on top of the order until it came in. I love it. She also took care of some glasses that my Husband had been trying to get. She was the only one that worked with him on it. She made him a happy man with her solution. Which of course thrilled me. If you enjoy a happy pleasant and knowledgeable Motorclothes Associate just check in with Kathy Sapp. She always makes me smile just when I see her happy face. Always there to help or find just what you need. I feel better after she has helped get just what I wanted. read more

This review is regarding the Harley Riding Academy New Rider Course not the dealership itself. The riding course was great! Andy, JD, and Mark were all super helpful and really focused on getting everyone to the level of riding and safety they want to be at. I had 0 motorcycle operating knowledge or experience prior to the 3 day course and I ended up being one of two people To get a perfect score on the "Celebration of skill" as JD calls it or the final exam to Pass the course. I attribute that perfect score to Andy, JD, and Mark all putting in the time and effort required to teach me how to properly operate a bike. Thanks y'all. read more

Bought a new bike there. Not the best deal but the sales team was good. Maintenance is a different story. Very difficult to get someone from service on the phone. Usually I have to ride over and talk face to face, it's actually faster and more reliable. Called today and was on hold for 20+ mins. Called again. This time was on hold for 5 mins but then went to a recording automatically. On a good note, they did call back after I scheduled something online. Recommend the recording say, leave a message and we'll be back within 1 hour or something similar. read more

We love being at Desert Wind HD. Yvonne in Marketing is the best to work with & TC & Jerry too. Like family

I picked up my Harley Breakout 114 that I purchased through Military Auto Source while deployed. From the start the customer service I received was unmatched. The professionalism and sincerity of everyone in that store blew me away. They made what I thought was a simple pick up into a very special event for both my wife and I. A special thanks goes out to Ray R, but the entire staff was nothing short of phenomenal. No matter where I go in the U.S, I will be back to Desert Winds to purchase my next Harley. read more

I went to the riding academy at Desert Wind Harley Davidson and I'm happy I did! There were several different places to go, this was recommended by a friend. I had riding experience so I figured I'd be board the whole time and at first I was but I started learning a lot of low speed tips and help on my turns I never realized I could have done better. Right before the final exam I had a family emergency that really took my head out of the game, the instructors helped me immensely at that point and I don't think I would have gotten that at any other school around! My day could have been totally shot if not for them, I can't say enough good things about the instructors! Do yourself a favor and do your classes here, it's hands down the best decision I made! read more

One of the cooler Harley stores I've seen. Theres a lot of great guys in there who are very knowledgeable.

They have a lot of events. Love their bike nights. Always a good crowd with dinner adult drinks & raffles

I highly recommend the Desert Wind HD New Rider Course for new or existing riders. So much valuable information to be learned, as well as practicing skills one may not necessarily use all time or even consider. "The dance". Thanks to my trainers Andy, Mable, Murrae, JD, and Mark I am more confident and comfortable, not only on a motorcycle, but driving any vehicle. Their knowledge, approach, compassion, and passion shown in teaching this class is outstanding and very much appreciated. Because of this I will likely be back to take the skilled rider course in the future. read more
