Bartels’ Harley-Davidson Customer Appreciation Breakfast

Photos From Bartels’ H-D Pancake Breakfast

Marina del Rey, CA – December 12, 2010

Bartel’s Harley-Davidson is the Harley dealer to the stars. I am not sure when they achieved that status, but I am pretty confident I have been coming there since before then. They were a small outfit, tucked on the side streets when I first discovered them. Since I rode my bike more frequently than the average rider, it did not take long to become recognized. I have since bought a couple new Harleys from them, including my new Limited.

Yesterday, Bartel’s had a free pancake breakfast as a customer appreciation event. Since we were heading out for a ride up the coast it was decided that we would start the day off with a little breakfast, courtesy of Bartel’s Harley-Davidson. It was a great way to start the day.

Modified Exhaust

I hope no local cops read this blog. Last week I put Screaming Eagle mufflers on my new Limited. Unfortunately, for the money spent, it wasn’t really quite enough. As I have been a customer of Bartels’ Harley-Davidson for almost 25 years, Ron Bartels was not about to let me be even slightly unsatisfied. That is why I keep coming back. My photo of the day for day 212 is a very rare photo in that it has someone else on my bike. Featured is Ron on the bike with his dad, Bill in the background.

Screaming Eagle

Saturday I headed over to Bartels’ Harley-Davidson in Marina del Rey to get a replacement lock for my tour pack and a new exhaust to help improve performance of my new 2010 Limited. Turns out the lock has not arrived, so I had to settle for the new Screaming Eagle mufflers. Day 205 picture of the day is the view from the rear of the new mufflers.
