2009 BMW F 650 GS
$8,255.00
Hop on. And blast off with BMW's newest twin.

The all-new 2009 F 650 GS offers more power and more thrills per mile than ever before in the form of a 71 horsepower, torque-filled, twin cylinder engine. From touring, to off-road exploring, to sporty handling on the tarmac, this middleweight machine, based on the much anticipated F 800 GS, does anything and everything the ambitious motorcyclist could ever want. With a rigid steel tube trellis frame, it's sturdy. With a double-sided swing arm and chain drive, it's reliable. And with a low seat height and narrow design, it's ideal for darting through trees or traffic. Cast aluminum wheels and telescopic forks keep the ride smooth and precise at all times. Throw in disengageable ABS and even Tire Pressure Monitoring as options, and you get a road-hungry, enduro-styled motorcycle that can tackle anything in its path and beg for more.

Available July 2008.

 
 

2009 BMW F 800 GS
$10,520.00
Ready to rip, ready to rule.

This fall, the legendary GS gets even more legendary with the incredible new F 800 GS. It's lean. It's mean. It's ready to tackle everything from dual sport rides in the woods or desert to long-haul adventure touring. With a lightweight design and eye-opening power, The F 800 GS is the most off-road oriented GS ever built. A parallel twin engine with 85 charging horses and 62 foot-pounds of torque give it startling speed and breathtaking acceleration. Throw in a dry weight of just 392 pounds, six-speed gear box, switchable ABS, wide foot rests and a 4.2 gallon tank located under the seat for a low center of gravity, and you get an enduro light enough for amazing handling no matter where you're headed. If you want all the capabilities of the GS in a lighter, tighter, totally aggressive package, the destined-to-be-a-classic F 800 GS is your ride.

 
 

2009 Triumph Bonneville T100
$8,799.00
Bonneville T100
Quite simply, a true classic in every sense.

The Bonneville T100 recaptures the classic 60's styling with a wide selection of features. Two-tone paint, spoked wheels, fork gaiters, twin "peashooter" style exhaust silencers, chrome engine covers and black instrument surrounds complete that classic look. While the styling is pure 60's, the engineering is right up to date.

Like all 2009 Bonnevilles, the T100 benefits from the latest incarnation of Triumph's legendary 865 cubic centimeter parallel twin, which is now fuel injected. This bike will not only stop people in their tracks, but with disc brakes front and rear, it will stop you nicely too. This is without a doubt a modern motorcycle for the classic rider.

 
 

Happy New Year from Cycle Specialties!
Happy New Year from your friends at Cycle Specialties! What a year 2008 was. What a year 2009 will be! We had a year full of shop rides, special events and of course Open House parties!

Vespa scooters gained a lot of attention (and sales) this summer when gas prices surged to over $4.50 per gallon. As a result, many new and experienced riders took advantage of the incredible mileage a scooter has to offer. In fact I just had breakfast with an avid group of scooterists that are getting a local riding club off the ground. If you would like more info, email me at sales@cyclespecialties.com

Our Ladies Day event and the "2 Ride the World" presentation were very fun and well received too. We hope to plan many more fun events for 2009!

There were many big changes for us in 2008. We started selling Triumph Motorcycles this Summer. As many of you know, we also moved into a fabulous new dealership in November! For those that haven't stopped by yet, you are in for a big surprise! The new shop is at 1201 North Carpenter Rd, Modesto, CA, 95351.

Grand Opening Party Saturday Feb 14th!
It's party time!

We will be throwing a Grand Opening Party Saturday Feb 14th! We are getting settled into our new location and would love to have all of you here for an afternoon of finger foods and fun.

We also have a very special presentation at 6:00PM that same evening. Adriatic Moto Tours will be showcasing the incredible touring roads of Slovenia, Croatia, Montenegro, Bosnia, and the Czech Republic. Beautiful sights and empty roads are typical of an Adriatic Tour. We have a customer and friend, Kendall Youngland, that shared pics from his tour in the same area this past summer. All I can say is "Don't miss this presentation"! We will be serving desert too! Get ready for some great deals and great fun! We'll see you soon!

Gail's Dual Sport Garage
For 2008 I started leading dual sport shop rides around our Central Sierra vicinity. The rides have been so popular that I am looking forward to leading more monthly dirt rides in 2009!

I know of a lot of great dirt roads and trails. But I don't know all of them! If you have a favorite trail or area you would like to explore, be sure to let me know. I like variety and I think our customers do too!

Last year we had a great turn out for the High Sierra campout ride over Kaiser Pass to Mono Hot Springs and Florence Lake. I am currently planning another fun multi day trip for 2009. This will probably be our July DS ride.

As always, our group rides are "more the merrier". Feel free to invite a friend to come out and meet some fellow DS enthusiasts. They don't even have to ride BMW bikes!

Get ready to mark your riding calendar. The 2009 DS Ride schedule is: 1/18/09, 2/15/09, 3/22/09, 4/26/09, 5/17/09, 6/21/09, 7/19/09, 8/16/09, 9/20/09, 10/18/09, 11/22/09, 12/13/09

2009 will be fun and dirty! Let's have some fun and explore the mountains together!

A Personal note from John the Boss
We are so blessed to have wonderful customers and friends in this business. To be able to share our passion for riding and the camraderie that it brings. Enjoying God's wonderful gifts in the best country on earth, we truly are blessed. I was so moved when Dennis Haggerty of the Christian Motorcyclists Association asked if I would like them to come and bless the new shop. Of course I said yes and had to wipe away tears more than once as we prayed together. Thank you all so much and may God richly bless each of you.

John J. Wienholz
