The dealer I referenced is Horny Toad H-D, on IH-35 in Temple, Southbound exit 297, Northbound exit 294B, under the water tower!

ChromeJunkie is correct that the dealership in Killeen was named Horny Toad HD of Ft Hood. They closed that location in February of 2021. The same owners have the one in Temple and it does seem to be doing well.

Thanks, I didn't move to Central Texas, until last April, so the Killeen location was already closed.

Still don't understand the point of this thread. Maybe it's the birthday martinis.

You can add Columbia Cycle H-D in Vancouver,Washington since 1946 is also gone.
Bought out and renamed Volcano H-D and then Latus Motors in Portland,Oregon was also bought out by the same people and merged becoming Volcano H-D.
The Vancouver shop closed its doors after 76 years so we no longer have a dealer here in Clark,County ,WA.

So sad! I've been to many of the dealerships that have been closed.

I guess what we (especially those with older bikes) is a listing of reputable indy shops.

I suppose we will have to rely on F/B or maybe YP when we need some work done.

Landmark Shelton’s Harley-Davidson of Smithfield and Goldsboro, North Carolina, has changed hands as Shelton and Sharon Davis have retired and sold the operation to Carson Baker of Baker American Cycles and renamed Bulldog Harley-Davidson. Established by the Davis family more than 30 years ago, Shelton’s love of the Harley-Davidson brand combined with Sharon’s commitment and passion for family, created a legacy that will not soon be forgotten.

The Smithfield location will remain at its current address at 1043 Outlet Center Drive in Smithfield, North Carolina, and has been renamed Bulldog Harley-Davidson. The Goldsboro location has been closed.
