Want to make it a Merry Christmas for your favorite motorcyclist?
    Looking for that perfect gift for your Harley ridin’ guy or gal?
    It’s that most special time of the year at Cape Fear Harley-Davidson, and Parts Manager Duke Durham says the dealership, located on Sycamore Dairy Road, has something for every level of rider and every budget.
    “Some of our hottest sellers include bike covers and cleaning products,” said Durham. “And a big seller for us is a cycle dryer, which looks like a lawn blower and sells for about $40. It really gets the nooks and crannies of your bike dry after you wash it. I won a cycle dryer in a contest and I use it all the time.”{mosimage}
    Durham says that in the parts department, he finds that a lot of bikers come in this time of year to treat themselves to new exhausts or horsepower upgrades — he cited a customer who recently purchased $4,000 worth of new wheels.  Other items of note that are hot this time of year include new windshields, timer and derby covers, and, for the undecided or uninitiated in the world of motorcycles, Durham says gift cards are always a good idea, especially for the wives of bike owners.
    “A lot of wives come in and buy gift cards and other stuff for their husbands,” said Durham. “And we get a lot of secretaries who buy stuff for their bosses who ride, especially the cycle blowers.”
    Over in the customer service portion of Cape Fear Harley-Davidson, Sabrina Hunt says you can find just about anything you want affixed with a Harley-Davidson logo.
    “We’ve got Harley-Davidson-licensed versions of the board game Monopoly and Jenga, as well as clocks, cabinets and other unique gifts with the Harley-Davidson logo,” said Hunt. “Our collectibles are really hot sellers this year, as is jewelry, and, of course, there’s always gift cards.”
    Hunt says items such as helmets and leathers and other articles of clothing are often too “personal” to buy for riders, as they generally need to be tried on by the rider.But everything else is fair game, said Hunt.
    “If we don’t have it, we can order it,” said Hunt. “And you wouldn’t believe some of the things we can order that are licensed by Harley-Davidson. We can get pool tables, pool balls, juke boxes, refrigerators ... you name it.
    “We’ve got everything for customers looking for that unique gift,” said Hunt. “And we strive to satisfy all our customers with the best possible customer service.”
