Reviews & Thank You's

Hey everyone!

I'm not trying to toot my own horn but I'd like to share a few reviews we've received recently - but for a very good reason that I'll reveal in a bit.

I've been a biker for 31 plus years. NEVER found a good pair of chaps that fit me right, till I had a custom pair made for me. Unfortunately, EMT's had to cut them off a few yrs back. I heard good things about these on Facebook. I have large muscular legs and with the comfort fit spandex these fit me just right.. better than the custom fit. I am not one to write a review but with such a gr8 deal I had to pass this on.. Ride Free

The vest is a vest and a very nice vest at that. What I was overly impressed with was the service. I ordered the vest on a Friday and had it at my door Monday morning. I will be sending everyone I know to this website.

Great looking and comfortable chaps and the best thing is the price. Shipping great. Dean took care of me with a question and what not. Very helpful. Told my friends I ride with to buy these chaps from Double D. Thanks Dean.

So what's my point?

I got into this business not only to provide good products for a great price but to serve my fellow riders. I wanted to give the service that I felt was really lacking at so many shops and dealerships. Your wonderful comments tell me that I'm on the right track. And that makes it all worth while.

Thank you to everyone for your business, your kind words and your trust.

We'll see you on the road.

Lube Your Motorcycle Cables the Cheap Way

Don't Forget the Cables!

One of the most overlooked maintenance items on a motorcycle is the cables. Cables can dry out, become brittle and break over time if not properly maintained. Sitting on the side of the road with a busted cable - not good! I recommend to folks that they lube their cables at least once a year in the spring. It's actually pretty simple and only takes a few minutes. Why would you pay the dealership $80.00 an hour to do it?

The video shows a simple way to do it yourself and with a few items that you probably have laying around your garage. (I've heard from a few riders that it's not good to oil the newer teflon cables though. Has anyone else heard this?)




Have you found any other simple ways to do this yourself?

Why is Your Stuff so Cheap?

Cheap Price Doesn't Always Mean Cheap Quality

"Why is your stuff so cheap?" We hear that question more times than I care to tell you. So often cheap price is equated with cheap quality. But it doesn't have to be.

More often than not, you're paying for the "privilege" of wearing somebody's name splashed across your back. At Double D Cycles, we forgo the logos and charge you what the item should really be priced at. This is the principle upon which Double D Cycles was built: To give you the same quality (or better) than you could find at the dealership at a price that doesn't break the bank.

Quality Materials, Quality Construction, Guaranteed

Our leather items are constructed with full grain leather - not the split hide stuff that feels like plastic and cracks at the first sign of cold weather. Heavy duty zippers and hardware for long-lasting performance. Our boots are constructed with the same heavy duty full grain leather and Goodyear welt construction as the big boys use.

And if you're not happy, you can send it back to us for a refund. With no hassles.

So, why is our stuff so cheap? It's not. It's priced reasonably because we're here to make a living and serve the motorcycle community - not make a fortune off the backs of fellow bikers.

Stop by the Double D Cycles online store. See what we have to offer at a price you can afford and feel free to contact us with any questions. Come ride with us!

The Best Motorcycle Rides in America

Our Back Yard Has One of the Best

Pretty much running through our back yard is the Great River Road. The Great River Road is a stretch of Highway 35 that runs down the Wisconsin side of the Mississippi River from the northern part of the state to Iowa. It gently winds along the edge of the state with the Mississippi River on one side and scenic bluffs on the other side. The Great River Road takes you through 250 miles of some of the most beautiful scenery in the Midwest. It's one of my favorites and I feel so lucky to have it so close. To learn more about the Great River Road, visit the website at http://wigrr.com.

How Does Your Favorite Motorcycle Road Stack Up?

We all have our favorite ride. Some of us favor the wide open country roads while some of us love the twisties. The Discovery Channel recently put together their list of the top motorcycle rides in America. You can see their picks here: Best Motorcycle Rides in America.

Was your favorite motorcycle road on the list? Or what additions and subtractions would you make to it?
