Stores in Detroit area??

I'm thinking of going down there and need to know if there's any motorcycle stores that anyone would recommend. I'm actually going to the sterling heights/warren area.

I have to buy a chain so preferrably a store that has one in stock. obviously.

I have it from an industrial chain distributor that if you go good quality chain, they are basically all the same.

Remember, that's what I've been told by someone who isn't allowed to sell me chain for the bikes, so has nothing to lose or gain.



Incoming!!!

MAC, there are a couple of dealers in the area that you can check out depending on how far you want to drive. The closest one would be Honda of Warren (30822 Ryan). Can't really say much about their selection, but if you have the time you could hit either Rosenau Powersports in Dearborn (all brands + Ducati) or Andersons in Bloomfield Hills (all major brands) which have a large inventory of bikes, accessories, parts, etc. There's a small shop in Eastpointe called Detroit Eurocycles that carries Aprilia, Moto Guzzi, and a few other exotics if that suits your tastes. There's also BMW and Harley dealers near where you'll be if you're interested.

Let me know if you have any questions or need more info...
