Thumb Motorcycle Accessories Store in Grand Junction Rocks

You Colorado guys are lucky to have a store like this in your backyard.
We were on Kokopeli Trail when one of my friends broke a clutch cable on his KLR.
He managed to limp to GJ and these folks had it in stock. We all ended up stopping by their store later that day.
They are really cool, old school folks. I wish all stores were like this.

Was there two weeks ago, and it is a good, customer-centric place.

Good Store

Yea I agree..they got a lot of stuff and are ok. I was able to find some hard to find parts there.

I had a motorcycle that would not sell in NM, took it up there and they sold it on consignment for more $$$ in two weeks.

I even saw some officers of the Denver chapter of Hell's Angels stop there to buy parts, spoke to them a little. An interesting note: they were wearing full face helmets, which surprised me.

They are the first place I go to buy moto stuff. They have parts for my bike in stock that the local dealer didn't. Very nice when I wanted to ride that day.

They've been around a long time, John Martin ran it for years, I think his kid runs it now. John was very active in COHVCO and did a lot of good things for the off-road community, good people to support.
