Well just found out about this one, Jay Brown one of the owners of the shop was featured in this documentary made about Sturgis in 2007, called 2 Million Motorcycles, 24 hours in Sturgis by Mike Callan. Jay is in a short section at the beginning of the docuumentary and then is showed again at the end, he actually get in the last words. Mr. Rosini, the founder of our shop, is featured in 1 Million Motorcycles, that was made years earlier when he was still alive, filmed by the same person. Also there are several shots in the video of the front of the shop as well, but they don't show the signs, so those of you that know the shop will recognize it. All in all a good film about Sturgis, although it only shows a small part of the whole thing. The film is Distributed by Circle King Networks and can be ordered through: http://www.fullthrottlevideo.com/
So if you want a copy of either of the videos you can order them by clicking the link above.
