Six Bends Harley-Davidson Motorcycle Shop and Academy Set to Open in October at Daniels Parkway and I-75<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The 16 Acre, Six Bends Harley-Davidson location will feature a Motorcycle Shop, 2 Acre Motorcycle Rider Academy, Repair Shop, Message Board on I-75 and Rock Concerts & Events for up to 5,000 people.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Six Bends location is owned by Scott Fischer, owner of Harley-Davidson of Fort Myers, which will relocate from its current location on Colonial Blvd and the US 41 overpass to the new location in October.\u00a0 The goal is for the new location to be a target destination for Harley-Davidson customers with the latest Harley gear, a new high visibility location and concerts to bring in new riders.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The new location will be a 2-story dealership and the number of employees will increase from approximately 70 to almost a 100 employees at the new location.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The location will also include two separate buildings of office space on the second floor and retail space on the first floor totalling 45,000 square feet. The hope is to have part of that space occupied by a cigar store, barber shop, restaurant and pub to continue the focus of the site being an entertainment destination.<\/p>\n
