Been calling their number in Michigan but only get a machine answer "the party you are calling..."  Anyone know if they are still in business?

I am looking for my 2010 Gold Wing, not the Valk.

Thanks.

Just noticed MOP is using 231-714 dash four six 0 six as their contact number. 231 is northern MI (Traverse City and others cities).  586 number was the original area code.

hope they are still in business   a terrific product and I was lucky enough that Mick and his son put mine on my interstate long long ago at an americade rally

He even shipped me a replacement part when I broke the left peg on  my way back from Kenturcky ride
I  stupidly was standing on the peg while passing a truck on a downhill right turning grade and was lucky
to regain control when it broke

THEY ARE NOT MEANT TO BE STOOD ON !

I have two sets of MOPs, one on the trike and one on my original cruiser.   Tried to put a set on the Rat Bike but, while getting her back to road worthiness, I was asked to lower her as much as possible for shorter legs.   While the Rat does everything it's supposed to do, I discovered that using MOPs on a bike lowered to minimum height is not conducive to taking steep curves while using the MOPs.  The Rat got a new motorcycle tire instead of going Darkside but, that's going to change eventually.  Riding her now feels like I'm on a souped up minibike.    2funny

I do believe I read where they went out of business.

Greg - nice to see you this weekend- It’s been a while since Ive seen those guys around- thought he shut down production some years ago.
Maybe he moved up north to Traverse City area code for retirement, leaving 586 (Oakland Co) behind.  coolsmiley

Maybe the MI Rep has contact info  :cooldude

I found a guy on the RIW website that was a dealer in Georgia.  I was able to contact him and learned that they are out of business.

Thanks Gig.  It was great seeing you and Theresa, and a surprise.  Glad you are doing better.  I see you on the FCR list, so hope to see you both there.
