HD of South Richmond

Would like to have been at VIR for the motorcycle races this weekend, but that was not in the cards unfortunately (this year anyhow). I did however make it out to HD of South Richmond which is located at 10011 Hull Street Road in Richmond, VA. Found it to be a nice friendly shop, apparently one of two if one goes by the very good web site. This one is not one of the "upgraded" stores, being in a shopping mall, but had a good collection of motorcycles, clothes, and a nice look to it. An Aerosmith (get well soon Steve Tyler...who fell off a stage at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally) video was playing on a big screen tv in the store.
They had a good selection of motorcycles in the store. Something I have not seen very often is one of the salesmen fired up one of the bikes on the sales floor, I thought that was pretty cool (and it was a new one not a used bike. I did get a real good look at the red XR-1200 at the bottom right; I have been to a few flat track races (in both Louisville, Kentucky and in Concord, NC) and really like that styling. Said to be the most powerful of Harley-Davidson air cooled bikes, and an interesting motorcycle to check out. Started out being an overseas model, but has been made to sell in America "by popular demand".
A very enjoyable visit, was neat to check out the bikes; being far from mine nice to be around the shop and checking out a few of the new 2010 models. Will be checking out many more motorcycle shops and events during my time here in Virginia.
