"This was the BEST experience, by far, that I have ever had,
when it comes to buying a new vehicle. Chris, our sales person, was a pleasure to work with. No pressure at all from him, just a very friendly and knowledgeable and honest!!
Then there is Nikki! She made spending all that money a lot
of fun. You would think her and my wife were long lost friends. I doubt there is anyone, who could do her job any better. She truly loves what she is doing. I would like to say to the owners
of Hot Rod Harley--"Your dealership is the exception, not the norm" Thanks for everything, and may God continue to bless
your outstanding dealership!!

"This is definitely one of the best dealerships around. The people working are all very friendly and helpful. My husband dropped his bike off for a tire and brakes and the service department had it done in an hour. (A friend dropped his bike off at another dealer and six weeks later he still does not have his bike back and plans on bringing his bike to Hot Rod the next time he needs work). My husband and I both got new helmets and the sales staff was very helpful in helping us size them. We love this place!!!! Thanks everyone for your outstanding service!"

"What an awesome group of people at HOT ROD. I went in for a purchase assist on a 2005 Electra Glide I had found from a private owner. Nikki was an awesome help. Explained everything in detail. Even got extra insurance and a 2 year extended warranty on the bike. Previous owner bought it from HOT ROD and had all modifications and work done there as well. Soon as Chris Kemp found out whose bike I was getting he said "NICE BIKE". Anyhow I just want to give thanks to my new friends Nikki in finance, Chris Kemp and of course Karna and Laura in clothing (funny girls). They look forward to seeing my wife when she arrives with the check book and wanting clothes. :-) "

"How does one describe their experience? FIRST CLASS comes to mind. I recently purchased a new 2010 Street Glide. From the time I stepped thru the door at Hot Rod I was in shock. I never in my life have been treated with such respect. The staff is all about customer service. My salesman Ron Silverman and Kyle Heller did whatever it was going to take to get me on a new bike. Nikki Haver was fantastic with the financing and getting the best deal. Hot Rod's Staff will bendover backwards to help. Karna in clothing went well out of her way to find a leather jacket that I wanted and had it shipped from another dealer. Then was able to get it to the driver to deliver when they delivered my new bike. What a positive experience from the time I stepped thru the door. If your looking to buy a Harley you owe it to yourself to check out the Folks at Hor Rod Harley Davidson. You will not regret it. Ron, Kyle, Nikki and Karna, Thank you all for dedication, you have made a customer for life. "

"If you don't like high pressure sales then Hot Rod is the place. Chris Kemp was very patient and knowledgeable. Never pressured or pushed. He was honest with everything even in suggestions on what style bike I should look at. I'm very happy with my purchase at Hot Rod Harley and definately would recommend them to anyone looking for a new or used Harley
thanks

"I wish to extend my many thanks to Steve Bickford and Nikki Haver for being so polite and helpful to me on my first purchase of a Harley Sportster Motorcycle. I will highly recommend HOT ROD HARLEY of MUSKEGON to all my friends and anyone else I encounter with the wants and needs of Harley Bikes and Service. I did alot of internet shopping with many different Harley Dealers and I found that Hot Rod Harley to be the finest dealership in the State of Michigan. I found the perfect motorcycle that had most of the options I was looking for and my favorite color of all BLUE for a fantastic price. I also want to thank the young gentelman who came out to help me strap down the bike on a trailer for my 150 mile trip back to my home town and I appologize that I forget his name but he knows who he is and he was the most helpful and polite individual anyone could ever ask for to get help with.. MY MANY THANKS TO ALL AT HOT ROD HARLEY and I can assure you that I will be returning for accessories when needed and when the time is right ANOTHER HARLEY....
Cudos to you all, May you all have a very safe and happy rest of Winter, Spring and Summer to come... God BLess You all and I am most definately looking forward to a return trip back to Muskegon to your store even if its just to stop in and brouse around....
Thanks

"CONGRATULATIONS YOU GUYS AND GALS!
You are the BEST IN MICHIGAN which I can attest to.
My Sons, Adam and Aaron, purchased their bikes, in 2009, from Hot Rod for the best price and have had excellent follow up service.
My opinion comes from having personally dealt with the 2 other HD dealers in West Michigan and a brief exposure to the others in Michigan through the Passport process last year. We all took the Riders Edge Coarse headed up by Cathy Hall as well in 2008.
Clyde ,Kyle, Chris , Nikki and Jerry and the other employees, whom I`ve met most of them, are great to work with.
The community support Hot Rod provides through Bike Time and Charitable events is a fine reflection on your dealership.
KEEP IT UP!

"I just had my Road King put back together again after it kissed pavement in September (I know, keep it upright). The insurance company said I can take it where I want to and though a bit out of the way and not has convenient as other places where it could of been fixed, the only place I feel confident to get it done, and getting done right is at Hot Rod Harley Davidson.
The bike is repaired, it was finished in a timely basis and it is now better than ever. I knew it would be and it was.
The dealership is great, the people are great, they care about what they do and they care about their customers
What more can I say?!

"YOU ROCK! Seriously, i was thrilled when Rick finally said "Let's buy a Harley!" We shopped all over West Michigan and came back to Hot Rod because the staff was awesome to work with, so much more like friends than staff. When we left, we felt that we really knew our bike (2009 Ultra Glide Classic) and knew what to expect from it. Ted, you are wonderful to work with, your knowledge got us into the bike we wanted, and now you're helping Rick make changes to really make this bike his own while i learn to ride. Can't wait to see you in a year and buy another Harley - of my own! From sales to parts and service, clothing, you name it we're with you for the long haul...Heck, we've even joined the local HOG Chapter! Thanks for carrying on Muskegon's Harley tradition in such fine fashion. Pam Roberts, 107MUS "

"This is to let you know how much my two buddies and I enjoyed our visit to your shop last Friday. We three from Tennessee had just completed a ride around Lake Michigan and visited your shop for T-shirts etc. before we started back.
We have been in many Harley Davidson dealerships in our travels but yours was one of the top two. Your super friendly staff treated us to a tour of your building and the girls in motor clothes were very helpful and a lot of fun to talk to. We were really made to feel welcome.
A visit to your shop made the eleven hour trip back to Tennessee a lot easier.
Thanks to all your staff for making our visit to Michigan a good one."

"I just wanted to write and THANK YOU and your employees for being so helpful and fixing our bike last Sunday.
We drove over from Owosso to Bike Time and on Sunday when we started back home, I had transmission problems. I called your service manager and told him what was going on and he said to bring it in and they would take a look at it. So we drove it back (in second gear) and they got it right in and found the problem and fixed it for us. It was a broken return spring on the shifting fork. They took the bike in at noon and had it back to us approximately 4:15 pm. They put 2-3 guys on it to get it done and were very informative on what was happening and we GREATLY appreciated all they did for us.
Just wanted to let you know what a great team of people you have there and we really enjoyed the Bike Time Event again and will continue to tell our friends about the event and what a great dealership you have!!!"

"I wanted to buy a new bike, but refused to enter my local dealer due to previously poor experiences. A friend who purchased a new Street Glide from Hot Rod said...this place is different, and he couldn't have been more right. I traveled 1000 miles (one way) to buy my new Road Glide and Kyle and the staff at Hot Rod helped me make it a one of a kind. Service, attention to detail and even a good firm handshake...what more could you ask for! Hot Rod Harley-Davidson is THE premier dealership for customer service and friendly people!"

"I had the honor of bringing the wife of a friend who was on his second tour in Iraq to help her purchase a Fat Boy for his return. Yor entire sales TEAM were fantastic. We spoke to Joe Gould by phone in Iraq while putting together what he wanted & it all worked great. He and I e-mailed a lot and all he could talk about was the day he would pick up his bike.
That day has come. He arrived home on 6/8/09 and will be there this week to pick it up. I will not be able to be there but can't wait to see him on that ride.
Joe we are all glade you are home again safe with your Family, Friends, & the HOT ROD TEAM.
Thanks to ALL of your TEAM that will make his day !!!!!!

"I just wanted to say your people are always the friendlist people when ever I stop in. I have been restoring a 1982 XL and buying parts and getting help from service above and beyond the call of duty. It doesn't matter if I spend ten dollars or hundreds, I still get the same treatment. When I do buy my next bike or parts, the friendly service is what will bring me back."

With the way the economy is right now I thought I would be able to trade my 07 ultra at a decent price. Needless to say, I called 4 different HD dealers and Kyle from Hot Rod HD was the only salesman to call me back with a price.Thanks again Kyle for your time, and when I get ready I will agian make the 350 mile trip."

"Hod Rod Harley Davidson Rescued our summer vacation! We had begun our trip around Lake Superior. First day ride West across Michigan to Ludington to meet the Badger ferry the next morning. About half an hour from Muskegon my motor rattles and the oil light comes on! I thought the trip was over. We called Hot Rod HD and they immediately sent a truck out to get us. We were at Hod Rod HD at 5:00 PM on a Wednesday with a motor I was sure was dead. Service was diagnosing the bike while rentals was finding a bike that I could rent for the next 8 days. They were determined to help us complete the trip. They had a suitable rental but as it turned out we didn't need it. The oil pressure problem was in the oil filter and the low oil pressure had allowed the lifters to collapse, very noisy but for only a second or two not fatal for the motor. I've never heard a motor fail due to low oil pressure but I was sure that's what it would sound like. A new oil filter and a bit of oil and we were on our way. We had an awesome ride around Lake Superior. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! to everyone at Hot Rod Harley-Davidson that made sure we could continue. "

"Hello,my name is Steffan Webb. My friend Lawrence Cassavore and i took a bike trip to his families cottage on 8-8-08 to Pentwater Michigan.We planned on stopping at three Harley Davidson dealerships on the way but did not make it to Muskegon on friday before they closed.Friday night we decided to get up saturday morning and ride 45 miles back south to Muskegon.Lawrence called there to see what time they opened.When he told me 8:00 a.m. i did not believe him.However it is true,how convenient for the customers.Although i am sure that all of Carl's hard working employees would rather open at 10:00 a.m. like all the dealerships in my area.I was completely blown away by Hot Rod Harley Davidson of Muskegon.First the store is huge and extremely clean. Second,oh my god,location,location,location.The view from the second floor of the lake is exquisite.When we first walked in and went up to the second floor to look at the bikes we were approached by salesman Ted James. I have a 2003 road king and i am dreaming of getting a 2009 ultra classic.Ted was extremely knowledgeable,answered all of my questions and showed me all of the new options on a 2009 model.He then took the time to show us all over their amazing new building.Then we went to look at the clothig.If you ever make it to Hot Rod Harley Davidson you better bring lots of money or your credit cards because they have the sexiest,sweetest and most helpful women there to lend you some advice.Then we met the owner Carl Miskotten.What a great person.My friend Lawrence's bike had been in the shop for nearly three weeks leading up to our trip.Carl personally took us down to service to show us the difference between the old part that was breaking(fuel filter in gas tank) and how HD had molded the new part for added support and strength.He also told us how his dealership was adding an extra wire for support on their own to take extra care of their customers.I wish the dealers in my area took that kind of care of their loyal customers.All of the people at Hot Rod Harley Davidson made me want to drive 250 miles to buy my new bike from them.Also thanks to Kyle Heller for the time and advice you gave us.We look forward to riding back to your dealership.Hopefully for the big party on the third weekend in july.
THANKS AGAIN,
Steffan Webb"

"Where to begin, my son and daughter rented a bike from HotRod Harley on July 3rd to take a trip to the bridge with 14 other bikes. We had a great ride up and took a day trip on the 4th. On the 5th my husband and son took a ride, they noticed a leak in a line and called Hotrod, They were told to take it to the local dealer In St Ingnace. He could not fix the bike and it was now 3:45PM on a Sunday. Hotrod said they would send a replacement bike right up. By 8:45PM the replacement bike was there. What service!!! Everyone with us is talking about your dealership. With 15 bikes in our group all talking about your dealership, word will get around at how great you are!!! We're all coming over for Bike Time this week-end. A special thank you to the couple that delivered the bike, it was there wedding anniversery and they spent in making sure the ride could continue.

"My experience with Hot Rod Harley Davidson began on June 30 2008. After 276 miles on a road trip my bike quit running in a very sudden manner.
The bike, my wife and I were all taken to Hot Rod H-D by a flat bed truck.
From the moment we entered the store we were treated like friends. Jerry the service manager and the service tecs went right to work checking out my bike.
As it turns out they couldn't fix it that night but stayed after closoing time just to find out what was wrong. There was a broken part inside the fuel tank that had to be ordered.
At this point I was wondering how my wife and I were going to get home. We live 95 miles south of Muskegon.
That is when we met Carl Miskotten. He stepped in and made my day and extended a hand of friendship which I will never forget. Carl could see that my wife and I were a little upset and rather than let us struggle with trying to find a car rental, he offered us a Rental bike at a price I couldn't afford to turn down. Not only that but he and some of his staff stayed well past closing time get us safely back on the road.
Two days later I returned with the rental bike, to find my bike properly repaired and clean as a whistle.
I'll always be indebted to the owners and staff at Hot Rod Harley Davidson. My only regret is that I don't live close enough to their store to make it my home store and join their HOG chapter.
Great people and a great store. If you're in the area do yourself a favor and stop in, it's well worth your time.

"Dear Hot Rod.
I would like to thank Dr. Mark Campbell and Mr. Carl Miskotten for putting together a great staff and business at Hot Rod. I just went through the Rider's Edge class and I would like to thank very much my instructors Richard,Scott and Cathy for the wonderfull job that they did.They made the class very fun and very helpful and improving my riding skills. They went above and beyond to help.The feeling that I got from taking the class and knowing my classmates and instructors will be with me for a very long time. Words can not tell how my feelings were for the instructors for all of the help they gave to the class and me. I am trying to buy a new bike and it is because of all the people at Hot Rod that I will have one some day."

"Not sure where to begin but here it goes. Ive had the bug to own a Harley for quite a while,visited the internet to check out the bikes and finally decided to stop and see what was available. The people at Hot Rod who had never seen me before treated me as I were a lifelong friend, and that with the dream of owning a Harley was all ot took to really get me serious. It did take quite a few trips before I actually decided to order a bike but I finally did it. I took my first step and ordered a Fat Bob and then the hard part started,the wait. As my time got closer to arrival I'm sure I drove everyone there nuts but they were all patient with me,I guess I was maybe a little excited. Then it happened,a delay on my order, what a bummer, but once again everyone was extremely helpful. Bob kept me calm, Kyle searched for another bike, Steve gave me info on other models that also had my interest, Nikki had all of the paperwork in line and I was ready but no bike. What happened after that was an amazing show of what these awesome people will do to make a dream come true.
The Fat Bob just wasn't going to show up soon enough and I was frustrated. Bob knew I had also eye balled the Street Glide so getting together with Kyle and Eric they went to work to make me an offer I couldn't refuse. Well needless to say they did and an hour later I was the owner of a brand new Harley. I can't really describe my feeling about a dream come true but I think we all had a smile afterwards, me because of a new bike and everyone at Hot Rod for making it all come together. And then there are all of the great people that are in clothing, service, and parts. What can I say other that I wish everyone I knew was just as great as they are.
KEEP UP THE AWESOME WORK AND THANK YOU!!!!!

"Well it all started as a harmless trip to a Harley dealership in Marquette to buy shirts for friends and ended with the purchase of 2 new Harley's from Hot Rod in Muskegon. Yep you read it right, 2 new bikes. My husband went to Hot Rod to look for a specific colored bike he had seen in Marquette. What took place in the next 6 hours was nothing short of amazing. Now we are both FORMER Honda riders and both brand new Harley riders.
What a fabulous group of people. From the second you walk in everyone at Hot Rod are so kind and friendly. It truely is a place where everybody knows your name. I can never thank Kyle enough for getting not only my husband on a 2008 Ultra Classic but me on a 2008 Street Bob. And Nikki, well what can I say about the lady besides how wonderful she was to work with. Thank you all for the experience of a lifetime, and man, I just can't wait to ride.

"Steve "Pumpkin Noodle Face" Bickford made my initial experience of renting a Road King hassle free. When I decided to make a purchase I looked " Pumpkin Noodle Face" up. His product knowledge, coupled with his ability to communicate his knowledge at a level I could understand, marks him as a true professional.
Handling the paper work with Nikki Haver was quick,efficient, and fun. She even gave me a shirt, how can you beat that."

"Had to wait a long time to finally get my first Harley, '07 Street Glide, but Hot Rod made it well worth the wait. The entire staff was exceptional to deal with during my decision making process and the purchase. They continue to be a wonderful group of people to deal with on every visit for all my parts and accessory needs. The only question for me is who enjoys going back more, me or my 3 year old Jake when he gets to see Kyle and Nikki."

"To the family at Hot Rod Harley-Davidson: THANK YOU. Steve, Kyle, Nikki, Sally, Cathy Hall & Kathie Rohloff.
My wife and I walked in just to look at the new HOT ROD show room and the Harley's early fall of 2007. Everyone was so friendly and they did not over power us as we walked in. I asked some basic questions about the bikes and sat on a few. Then I explained that I have wanted a bike for over 20 years and have only ridden as a passenger and did not know how to go about achieving the next step, which was learning how to ride. The HOT ROD family filled me in about the RIDER'S EDGE program and with my wifes blessing, I enrolled in the next available class and purchased my first motorcycle, a new 2007 XL1200L Sportster. I learned the basic rider safety skills which built my confidence level, then after passing the RIDER'S EDGE and getting my State of Michigan endorsement, all with-in about 3 weeks, I was enjoying the freedom I have heard about from so many people.
My advice to all, don't wait on getting a bike because you don't know what you are missing.
LIVE TO RIDE, RIDE TO LIVE. Thanks again HOT ROD FAMILY!"

"WOW...what a weekend! Long story short. I was riding a 2006 Kawasaki Nomad 1600. My two Hog friends and their wives and I rode to Muskegon to see the lake a ride back in the same day. Our first stop was to Hot Rod so they could get some tee shits and stuff. Well, when we arrived,on Saturday,of Memorial Day weekend, the store was closed. As we sat on our bikes deciding what to do next, a silver hair gent, opened the door and said "HI...welcome, come on in, my name is Carl"
My metric bike was "commented on" but I had become thick skinned by now and paid no attention. As my two friends shopped I too browsed the new bikes. My eye spotted 08 Ulta Classic. As I admired that bike Carl came by and we chatted and one thing lead to another and the next thing I remember is I was the proud new owner of that Classic!
It was getting rather late in the day and Carl was concerned about our 3 hour ride home(Detroit area)and suggested that we stay in Muskegon for the night. We agreed and Carl made a phone call and then we followed Carl to where we would spend the night. What happened next was something out of dream. Respecting privacy, I will not reveal the owners name, but we(5 of us) are spending the night on a 45' boat!
The next morning,as we are preparing to leave, Carl comes by to see us and ends up leading us to the freeway home.
So, who's this Carl guy you must be asking? Besides our new friend, he's the owner of Hot Rod Harley.
If your thinking of a purchase, you owe it to yourself to go to Hot Rod and see Carl.
Thanks Again for everything Carl.

"This was my first Harley purchase. I shopped around, visiting 6 dealers through out west Michigan. I was told that I should buy local, but the local dealer wouldn't deal. Hot Rod listened to what I wanted and made me an offer that I just couldn't refuse, so I bought the bike. The staff was very helpfull in assisting my wife & I in selecting our new Harley-Davidson clothing. This experience has put a smile on our faces that has not gone away.
We feel like family when we are at Hot Rod. A million thanks to the whole crew. You guys rock!

"To all at Hot Rod Harley-Davidson,
I just wanted to dropy you all a note of sincere appreciation for the fantastic experience I had purchasing my new but old 2005 Road King Custom. I've never spent so much money and felt so good about it.
The second I walked in the door, Kyle was right there with the knowledge and answers to the questions I had regarding a Road King I saw on your website.
Not an easy sale, but no time wasted because Kyle could get to the point, deliver a fair price and get the necessary paper work done in record time.
After the papers were signed, I met everyone, and what a lasting impression of wonderful people who enjoy what they do and have a sincere appreciation for the customer.
Great job. I look forward to doing a lot of business with my new friends at Hot Rod Harley-Davidson. Thanks!"

"Hey Guys,
Mark here from DMX Motorsports Harley Drag Team. I came up to your Dealership this past Saturday with one of the Road Knights out of West Olive Michigan. To our surprise, parking was unfortunatly difficult when we showed up. We asked ourselves what is the "Buzz" here. And, when we got inside everyone in that dealership acknowledged us, weather they knew us or not. Seeing a bunch of people shopping in the dealership, and getting attention from all was a nice change of pace for us. I was lucky to have worked with Troy in another area of business around Grand Rapids many years ago. I found out while at one of our Bike nights in GR that Troy was working out at the New Harley Dealership in Muskegon. AWESOME and this past Saturday was the straw that broke the camels back as to where DMX Motorsports feels most at home.
Thanks Hot Rod Harley-Davidson

"I echo the sentiments of others who have had the opportunity (and pleasure) to experience the friendly, helpful and knowledgable staff at your dealership. Troy and Niki were a pleasure to deal with in my recent new bike purchase, and both were a big help to my girlfriend, who purchased a bike from a friend of hers. Both transactions were smooth, efficient, and went off without a hitch. We both were impressed with the friendly, helpful atmoshpere at Hot Rod Harley!"

"Last Saturday, my husband Jim and I were on a color tour with our ministry group and we got a flat tire. We were with about 30 bikes and the whole group pulled off the road with us. We called both our roadside service with Harley-Davidson insurance and also called the Hot Rod dealership. At first we were told it would take 1-1/2 to 1-3/4 hours to get someone there and then we were called back and told "someone was on the way". Our group went on once they knew help was on the way and we waited in the gorgeous weather. Someone was there in no time and the bike was immediately worked on upon arrival at your shop. We were treated so awesome and even were offered lunch! My husband has been bragging about your dealership since passing the Rider's Edge course the previous week. He said he was treated like family. We had no idea we would have to use your services so soon! The tire was repaired in no time and we were able to call our group and catch up with them at Muskegon State Park. Of course we had nothing but awesome things to say about your dealership and the treatment. The group thanks you for taking such good care of us!
Again, we just want to thank you for making our first breakdown easy and somewhat enjoyable! We look forward to seeing everyone at the Rider's Edge alumni luncheon.
Sincerely,
Jim & Marcia"

"I am writing to tell you what a great staff you have at Hot Rod Harley-Davidson. I was a student in the Riders Edge course last weekend, and I can't even begin to tell you what a great experience it was for me. I was not exactly the 'standard' student learning to ride - I came into the classroom with a complete phobia of motorcycles after having lost my brother in a motorcycle accident, and by taking the course was working towards conquering my personal fears resulting from that loss. The entire experience was so positive for me because of the great staff members. The course instructors were excellent, the program manager went out of his way to help me, and the general kindness of the office & showroom staff was just amazing. It's so unusual in this day and age to have any sort of a positive customer service experience, let alone a spectacular one, that I just had to let you know. I have worked in many office / administrative positions in my life and know that customer service is a rare commodity these days, and I just couldn't end my experience without at least letting you know what an awesome group of people you have working at your shop.

"I purchased a 2005 Softail Standard last June around the time of the new owners taking over. It was a large upgrade from the 79 Sportster I had from 1984-88. I'm still getting use to it every time I ride. I am very pleased with my bike. I can't say enough about the staff at HotRod. Any time my wife and I are at the shop we are greeted as soon as we walk in. Everyone is so pleasant and helpful they make you feel like part of a family instead of a customer. If I have any questions about parts, service or something I can add to my bike myself, they take time to answer and make sure I understand before I leave. It's a good feeling to have a dealership that's helpful and cares about you. Thanks to everyone who has made my choice so enjoyable. Verlie & Deborah Council "

"I've been in other local dealerships- but Hot Rod stands out from the first day I walked in there. The sales force was (and always is) very kind and informational. I felt very welcomed and even the other customers were friendly to me and my husband. I attended the Motorcycle safty class at Hot Rod and LOVED it. The coaches were awesome. I feel more confident in my riding and I even drive my car better. Hot Rod is my dealership for life! Even though it is a 45 min drive from my residence I will go the distance. Next year when my husband buys a new bike- we'll be purchasing it from Hot Rod. :) "

"The total experience was one that rates right up there with having my kids born! the entire staff was so cool that I felt like family before I ever bought my bike. The shopping experience was getting easier and easier when I met Troy at Hot Rod. I bought my Road King Custom and feel its being looked after like its one of my kids. They're with out a doubt the the best Harley Shop in Western Michigan, and I live 60 miles from Hot Rod and 4 miles from another. I bought at HOT ROD and will be buying a bike for my Dad there as well. Thanks to all the staff at Hot Rod and a special THANK'S to Troy and Cathy.
