Harley Shop Shuts Down—What’s Next?

Doc’s Harley-Davidson, a Kirkwood classic for 70 years, just closed up shop and merged with a rival. Locals are bummed, but here’s the scoop: this isn’t just about one store—Harley’s been struggling with sales, tariffs, and leadership shakeups. If you’re a fan, expect fewer mom-and-pop bike shops and more big, merged dealerships. For riders, it means less of that hometown vibe, but maybe more deals as shops try to win your loyalty. End of an era, but maybe the start of some new road trips! #HarleyDavidson #LocalBusiness #MotorcycleLife #Business
