Talking Shop: Why do your Harley-Davidson maintenance at a dealership?

Written by Tobacco Road H-D | Apr 1, 2023 4:00:00 AM

Harley maintenance, no matter what anyone’s level of experience in motorcycle knowledge, requires skill, an extensive set of tools, and resources. Not only are our certified technicians equipped with hundreds of thousands of dollars in tools that stay regularly maintained, but they keep their certifications through yearly in-person trainings and monthly digital training on all things Harley-Davidson motorcycle maintenance. 

 

Not every mechanic out there is working with tools like a Dynamometer. Not to mention the day to day items our technicians use such as engine hoists and stands, lifts, digital technician, battery tester/charger, bearing installer, seal drivers, cam tools, tire machines, wheel balancers, wheel bearing installer/pullers, service manuals, terminal crimps, multimeters, alignment tools, etc. 

 

Not only do they have all the tools to take care of your motorcycle maintenance, they’re also able to get parts you’ve purchased installed at the same time. Performance is these guys' favorite thing to do and customizing customer bikes can be done while getting your bike in for regular service. 

 

By getting your motorcycle maintenance done by our certified technicians, you're ensuring your bike’s life, keeping its value, and most importantly, making sure that you are safe on your machine. 

 

We know there are other options for people. Maybe you're a DIY kind of person or maybe your cousin has a small shop .... but we see it all the time when outside jobs come back to the shop. In our opinion, it’s better to do it right the first time.
