100% thought this would be a strip joint when I clicked on it.

Great looking place!

 

That Triumph looks legit, would be fun to try it out.

Agreed, I'd love to try that and the Beta.

I bet parents love to set their kids free in there, especially since mcdonalds closed the play place.

I make trips there quite often. Alum Creek mountain bike trails are only about 20 minutes from there so it’s a win win

Yep and hard to comprehend that the shop they had been in previously (kitty corner across the street from current location) was smaller than the floor space they currently devote to t-shirts...maybe 1500 square feet?  

Believe the building they're in now was a Kmart originally.

Woah, it’s like a Best Buy but for motorcycles. That’s awesome.

Ummm…ok.  A motorcycle dealership.  Anything special that I’m not seeing here?

It's a massive motorcycle shop. Maybe the largest in the US. It's what Chaparral wants to be when they hit puberty.

Maybe Mr. Rupert was just showing off some cool bikes they have in stock.

if you look in the background of the photos you can see some side by sides, perfect if you and your boyfriend want to go "riding" together.

As mentioned...building was a Kmart previously and Iron Pony even ended up adding probably another 20% to the building since they needed more floor space. Is that the kind of cycle shop you're used to seeing?

The thing I'd be interested in is do they carry any common parts for the bikes. In my experience these supersize dealers don't carry shit in the parts dept. Went to one on the way to a GNCC once and couldn't get a body bolt that's been used on several different Honda models for the last decade and a half...they had to order it. I ended up getting one from the Phoenix Honda semi

Those pictures do no justice. I've been before. It's kind of mind blowing how massive the place is.

First time I’d seen a Triumph 450 for sale, with my eyes…. Thought I’d share that and a few others….

Dude, they have shopping carts up front to put all your impulse purchases into and spend $$

 

I like this place!

Motozilli up by me finally got one a few months ago. They host a Legends and heroes event that I attended...they had the unveiling of their first Triumph 450 that night too

I love that place! After visiting Chaparral Motorsports last summer out in San Bernardino, Iron Pony is notches above!

I make the two hour drive a couple times a year and then stop by the ama museum on way home too as they are about 15-20 minutes apart. I personally liked the place before they started carrying bikes, though.
