Got this email yesterday. This big, bright, new, state-of-the-art multi-brand shop is located near Toledo, OH. Pretty cool place to stop, especially if you want to see a Triumph up close and personal. Too bad; nice people and a great location, but economics rule. Everthing -- including furnishings! -- is being sold on eBay. Link to their site at the bottom of the following quote:
"To our Customers and Friends,
It is with sadness that we inform you that North Coast Motorcycle has permanently closed.
We would like to thank everyone who supported our efforts. During our short 45 month history, we attempted to help breathe new life into a proud, old, iconic brand and also bring some true world class products and service to the Toledo area. We were recognized as a Top 100 Dealer EVERY single year of our existence (2003-2004-2005-2006)! With over 14,000 motorcycle dealers in North America, you know that it takes a special passion, customer-obsession and attitude to be among the very best. We received many awards and accolades for our hard work, it just was not enough.
As most of our friends know, Indian Motorcycle closed their doors shortly after we opened ours. Frankly, we never recovered from the loss of our key brand. Enormous amounts of labor, blood, sweat and cash was poured into our enterprise, as we just could not give up. Now, close to three years later, and even with our strong and proud products of Triumph, Big Dog Motorcycles and American Ironhorse, we find ourselves in a position to make a difficult decision...
We closed our doors on December 18, 2006.
We send you a heartfelt thank you for your loyalty! We treasure the relationships we have built and will never forget the friendships we have made. We regret any inconvenience our closing may cause you.
INVENTORY: We have begun the process of selling off our inventory, parts, apparel and fixtures. Please visit us on eBay! You will note that we are listing 30-50 items daily.

Invite your friends to take a look!
If you see something you like – BID! Once it’s gone, it’s gone.
