So what is it, you ask?

The crew here at Riders Harley-Davidson® decided it was time to purchase one of these bad boys to give non-riders and new riders a new outlook on riding a Harley®. Riding on two wheels can be a little nerve-racking, especially if you've never done it before, and this is the first step to kicking those feelings to the curb.

We attach a Harley® to this machine (similar to a Dyna, just on a smaller scale) and line up the back wheels with two rollers. We make sure it's secured and guess what...you're ready to take your first "ride". No, you don't need your license, permit, or any experience. The JUMPSTART™ is a machine that allows the rider to shift through the gears and back down again to get a feel for riding. Only the back wheel spins, allowing the bike to go up to 65 miles per hour.

And after doing it a few times, you'll be hooked! (We promise!)

Now, remember: The JUMPSTART™ - in "no way" - replaces the state certified riding course and is not to be considered a "training device". It's just to help you get the feel for shifting through the gears and just begin to understand what riding is all about. You won't have to hold the bike up, worry about other vehicles, or be afraid of your neighbor's dog Bruiser running out in front of you. You can finally start to understand why your sister, brother, best friend, co-worker, mom, dad, and grandparents love to ride.

Stop in anytime...the JUMPSTART™ is waiting for you!

You may have heard people say that there's nothing like being on a Harley-Davidson® motorcycle. Now, you can find out for yourself - even if you have no previous experience with motorcycles.

The Harley-Davidson® JUMPSTART™ Rider Experience combines a Harley-Davidson® motorcycle and a specially-designed, stationary support stand.

  • Motorcycle will not tip over

  • No knowledge or previous motorcycle experience necessary

You'll mount the bike, set your boots on the foot pegs and fire up the engine under the watchful eye of trained personnel. Give the throttle a twist and hear that unforgettable Harley® sound. Sitting comfortably on the bike, you'll continue to shift through the gears - all safely and securely attached to the JUMPSTART™ platform.
