S&S At The Rally In Sturgis 2011 +videos

Damn The Economy, Full Speed Ahead!

Every year S&S goes to the Black Hills Rally in Sturgis South Dakota to show off our new stuff and to have a good time.  We were located right downtown on Lazelle Street.  That’s smack dab in the middle of the action, and traffic at the S&S trailer was phenomenal. It looks like even in a down economy, our customers put the yearly pilgrimage to the best known rally in the country, pretty high on their priority list.

As usual the S&S crew was on hand to talk to customers - answering questions about our products and giving out tech advice.  Anything from carburetor jetting to engine building tips.  Of course most people visiting the S&S display trailer were looking for ways to make their Harley® faster.  That's easy because we have a lot of ways to do just that.  S&S offers go fast parts for 1930 to present big twins and 1957 to present Sportster models, so we have performance solutions for just about any bike and for just about any budget, anything from a performance air cleaner to a complete motorcycle engine.

As usual the S&S 4-Step Performance Program generated a lot of interest because you can achieve your performance goals in easy steps instead of writing out one big honkin' check for the whole works at once.  Of particular interest are the S&S exhaust products for baggers.  A complete line of slip on mufflers and the S&S Power Tune Dual header pipes.  With a bike on hand equipped with both, you could actually see them and hear what they sound like

Don't tell anyone, but we were also previewing a new series of air cleaners that will be released later this year.  We can't disclose any details yet, so you'll just have to ask someone who was there!

S&S did not sell anything at the rally, but if you saw an S&S product that really trips your trigger, you can still get it right away.  J&P Cycles had a store just down the street from our location, and Speeds Performance Plus had a mobile shop and dyno right in Sturgis, where they did S&S installs and show you the dyno results in one go.  How cool is that?  (Watch the opening video below to see Speed's in action)

If you wanted to think about it and get your new S&S parts after you got home, you can always order it from your local S&S dealer.  Don't know who or where your local dealer is?  Check our dealer locator and find out in a hurry.

Of course it wasn't all business.  When in Sturgis, do as the Sturgians do.  That means S&S Night at the Broken Spoke Saloon, on Lazelle Street.  A good time was definitely had by all.  Food, music, burnouts, and one lucky guy, Dan "Z", walked away with a free S&S engine!  Watch the videos below and see the action!
