I am just starting out with riding and don't have much experience with it. The culture, needs, and…read morerequirements to do it safely and successfully can be a little daunting. And expensive. Leather riding gear especially, you can need a lot to stay warm and protected and that adds up. Leather is particularly a pain, since generally it is altered to fit and isn't easily returnable...so getting the wrong thing will make your life miserable and expensive. I shopped around a little in Salem to get an idea of what I was going to be spending. My mind was swimming with the extravagance of cost. And though I got some pretty detailed help at the Harley-Davidson shop, the prices were pretty big. Other stores just kind of let me cruise around. I tried various things on and it was alright, but I felt a little out of my depth. Then I strolled into Hawg Haven, upon suggestion of a friend. The shop is dark and very biker-esque. Almost felt like I had walked into the clubhouse of the Sons of Anarchy. Helmets, chaps, gloves, and all sorts of add-ons lined the walls. In the back of the place is a full leather alteration shop, right next to a large array of leather jackets and vests. The staff was immediately helpful, but since I was just looking, I kind of waved them off. I checked the prices before trying them on. Where other stores had set their prices around $300 and up, most of the jackets I found at Hawg Haven were of similar quality, and went for $150-$300. Having to buy everything else at once, I didn't want to go all out on my first gear, and I actually found a pretty damn good jacket on clearance for $100. I tried it on, it fit pretty damn good, and I took it up to the counter and left it there to go and look at some other stuff. When I got back to the counter, with a new bandana in hand, the amazing lady there (I'm pretty sure she's one of the owners) asked me if the jacket fit good. I said it did, but she looked skeptical and asked again, stressing how too big a fit can get air up under the surface and cause problems. I offered to try it on and she took one look at me and told me it was too big. She then went and got the same style jacket, but a size smaller, and told me to try it on. I did and the fit was very much different, and exactly what she said I was supposed to look for. It was also the same price...no upsale here! She then eyeballed me and told me exactly the size of chaps I would need, when I was ready for them. She told me their shop will alter them to fit perfectly as well. This person clearly, CLEARLY, knew her business if she could pick out at a distance that I was getting too big of an item. And she got me the exact thing I needed, saving me future misery. And she threw in a head cap complimentary, to go on under my helmet. And all with me buying a bottom-of-the-line, entry-level clearance jacket from Pakistan. Wonderful. Simply wonderful. When I upgrade my jacket, and get the rest of my gear, I will not bother going to any other joint in Salem. Nay, in Oregon. The people here obviously love riding, they love bikers, and they absolutely know their stuff. And it's a local business, not a chain. Don't bother checking any other place out...this is the place to be. Absolutely.

Disappointing Experience…read more I had a very disappointing experience with this dealership. Before making the trip, I was told that I would be able to test ride the motorcycle with my wife riding on the back. When I arrived, I found out that this was not actually allowed, which was frustrating because that was an important part of my decision to purchase the bike. On top of that, the bike was listed at $2,990, but they were adding roughly $1,000 in fees. They also did not seem particularly interested in negotiating or working with me on the overall price. Overall, I felt that the communication beforehand was misleading, and the additional fees and lack of willingness to negotiate left a bad impression. I would recommend making sure you get the dealership's policies, fees, and total out-the-door price clearly confirmed before making the trip. On the plus side the salesperson I was dealing with was very friendly and courteous, just be aware that from my personal experience they tacked on an additional 33% of their list price in fees.

I would have never known this place existed if I hadn't ordered a tire online and the seller had a note that shipping was free if I did a will call at Cycle Gear. OK... they are just a couple of miles away so why not. So looking at the place I figured it was mostly targeted at relatively new riders who were looking for helmets and other rider gear. And they certainly have racks of that stuff. Talking to one of the guys at the desk I inquired about rotor upgrades and he said, "sure!". Pulled out a catalog and showed me a few choices that would fit my bike. This fellow was clearly more knowledgeable than those guys at a parts store. You know the type. What year, model, engine size, color, blah, blah, blah so that they can figure out what windshield wiper will fit. And inevitably hand you a part that DOESN'T fit. So in chatting I find out they will install tires if you bring in the wheel. Install and balance for a pretty reasonable price. I see that at least one Yelper complained that the store manager would not allow him to watch the process which could be a problem for me. That's my life we're talking about. I do my own work or I watch whoever is doing the work to be sure it's done correctly. If that's going to be a problem for them I will be forced to update this review. But for now, my experience with Cycle Gear has been 100% positive. Great prices. Great staff. Easy to get to. Lots of parking. I haven't looked over their inventory closely but I suspect that most repair and maintenance items will need to be ordered which is usually not a problem for me. I buy pretty much nothing at the dealerships and, in fact, the dealerships usually don't have what I need in stock anyway. So I can buy for less online. Not that it's a big deal for my purposes but Cycle Gear is more geared to sport bike riders and not Harleys. I wouldn't be caught dead wearing most of the gear they have on the rack. No judgments and no minus stars. CG knows their market and their model seems to be working for them. I'm just happy to have a resource to have tires installed and also purchase parts from. Very glad they are so close by!

I'm a pretty competent shadetree mechanic, mostly because I frickin love machines and cars and…read morebikes and tools, I was poor when I was young, cheap when I got older, and I never could stand the shady greasy predatory feeling I got when I went to most mechanics. You know, the old, "Welp, sounds like you're gonna need a new transmission." before they even look at your ride kind of bullshit. Or the smug know-it-all douches who look down their nose at your 20 year-old bike. Or the capable old guy you talked to who turned around and handed your dear, sweet darling over to the guy who is only qualified to vacuum the carpets, who then goes on to break five things, and the old guy then says it's gonna be an extra $500 because shit happens, ya'know? @#*&%ers! So yeah, laying around on a gravel driveway in the wintertime, bashing knuckles and cussing and riding my bicycle to the parts store and all that was fine and fun, but now I'm older and crankier and have some disposable income, I want to shop some of that shit out. But I'm still uptight and cheap, and I know my stuff, and I can smell BS from the next county over, and every motorcycle mechanic I've been to in the last two decades has either done a half-assed job, took for-frickin-ever, like six months to do the work, or was, like, 30 miles away. So I guess I'm a high-maintenance customer. Or rather, I just want what everyone wants, which is the thing fixed at a reasonable price, within a reasonable time frame, and with a little fluffing of my ego. Is that too much to ask? And I like to learn things about my equipment and maybe my bad habits, so I can better work on both of them in the future. Which brings me to HDR. Within the first 30 seconds of talking to Gage on the phone, all that history of bad mechanics just washed away. He listened, spoke clearly and to the point, without trying to dazzle me with any of them big words and fancy talk, he was friendly, and the price he quoted me was, in my opinion, too low, but I'm not complaining. Still, I've been burned before, and I've had some messy breakups with mechanics, like the guys who were cool with me, but then cheated my little old lady mom when she went in, so I went in with eyes wide open, hoping for the best, but expecting the worst. However, the whole thing went better than expected. He was done sooner than expected, did what he said he was gonna do, and for the price he told me. He also checked out the general condition of my bike found a couple things that will need addressing in the future, but no hard sell. He obviously knows his stuff, is uptight about getting it done right, and actually wanted to argue with me about me just paying $2 extra rather than waiting around for change from a $100 bill. Take the $2 Gage. Buy half a coffee with it. My spidey sense did not tingle. I learned some stuff. My bike works really well. We shot the breeze. That is all I want from a mechanic. It was only the first job, but seriously, this was one hell of a first job! Oh shit, I think I just wrote an essay! Well, I guess that's how much a good mechanic means to me. That's all I got. Thanks Gage, I'll be bringing in my other bike soon too, after I stuff all these wires back in.
