So long and thank you for all of the good years.
Due to health problems I am closing my businesses and semi-retiring. Direct Parts was started in November of 1995 and will officially close in November 2006. For eleven years we were one of the largest Internet and retail (as Creative Cycles) shops around. When I opened the site, the only other shops I found on line were Flaming Pig and Cyborg Cycles. We were one of the pioneers when it came to selling Harley parts on line and we are proud of what we have done. I have met many, many fine people both on line and in person and have enjoyed their friendships tremendously. There were some speed bumps along the way but for the most part, we enjoyed it all. We enjoyed an excellent reputation and we will miss all of the good people out there and we thank you for your support, business and friendship.
If you are interested, we will be selling our remaining inventory at our retail location at 38 E Grant Road here in Tucson. All sales are final and cash and carry.
Take care,
Cyber Dave (CD)
BTW, speaking of Cyborg Cycles I had met the founder, Magnum Bob at his old shop in Daytona years ago. He is good people as are the new owners up in Idaho. Of all of the shops on line, I never heard a single compalint about them. So, if you are looking for a good place to do business with I recommend them whole heartedly.

Dave,
I'm really sorry to hear about your health problems and closing your business. I've bought a number of things from you over the years and had a problem with one item that you really went to bat for me with the manufacturer. I appreciated that. Good luck on your health and whatever life now brings you.
As is sometimes said in sports.....you da man!

Man, Dave, verry sorry for your health problems and sorry to see you leaving. Direct Parts has been an excellent place to do business with. I discovered Direct Parts even before I discovered the VTF forum. Direct Parts always had first class parts, excellent service, and great integrity. You all will be deeply missed.
all the best,
thrasher

Good luck Dave and I wish you and yours well.
I ordered pipes,PCIII and Ness Big Sucker from you and got them so fast my bike only saw about 250 miles stock.
I want to thank you for being among the first to offer online sales at good prices.
Thank You.

Thanks for making my Heritage Cool! I hope your health problems go away! FAR AWAY!
These Great looking and sounding pipes came from you, and I thank you for it! (I wished I hadn't traded the bike).
