franchise. Our brand and service is unique. We are redefining the
motorcycle service industry by being the first offer the convenience,
value and quality of Ride In – Ride Out™ maintenance services for all
types of motorcycles. This franchise service option has never been

Bikers' Bay Franchise Program
Bikers' Bay has developed a comprehensive franchise program and
delivery system which will give dedicated entrepreneurs the greatest
opportunity for success. We have carefully crafted service packages,
systems and procedures that start from the moment a customer walks into
the shop and extend to a personal follow-up call within 2 business days
after the service is completed. We provide our franchisees with proven
operating models, effective training and business management advice all
based on solid business principles and experience. Bikers' Bay has
established supplier networks, customized computer systems and
equipment packages that will build the foundation for your franchisee
success.
Franchise Training and Support
Bikers' Bay realizes that having solid, documented procedures is a nice
start, but effective utilization of these procedures and processes is
what makes it all work. Bikers' Bay training programs start on day one
and include instruction on business planning, site selection and build
out, product procurement, financial management, shop management,
operational procedures, and product knowledge. We are committed to
making our franchises successful and offer continued training and
support throughout the life of the franchise.
Prior to certification as a Bikers' Bay franchisee, a franchise manager
and at least one technician must complete the Bikers' Bay operational
training course. The training is a combination of classroom and hands
on experience. Training is taught at a working corporate store and our
training center located in Phoenix, Arizona. After successful
completion of the initial training and procedures courses, Bikers' Bay
will periodically conduct operational reviews and our field operations
staff provides on-site assistance. Bikers Bay offers franchisee
immediate support through our technical support line, staffed by
experienced professionals who are ready to answer questions and provide
personal assistance.
Marketing and Advertising
Bikers' Bay provides each franchisee with advertising and marketing
support. We have developed media packages and materials, which outline
company promotional and marketing objectives, and suggestions for local
advertising programs. Updates to the marketing materials are made from
time to time along with information explaining their uses. We work with
each Bikers' Bay franchisee to help generate maximum results from their
advertising dollars.
