Motorcycling is Dying? Not At This Royal Enfield Shop

While it seems like doom and gloom in the motorcycle industry lately, Sabatino Moto in Portland, Oregon is thriving. It’s a combination of selling a product people want, at a fair price, by people who really care about what they do. I spent some time with shop owner Eric Sabatino about the state of the motorcycle industry in general, whether or not motorcycling is dying, the future of his five-person shop, and our mutual admiration of the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450. Many of you have asked me to do a video introducing Eric and showing off his shop. I’m only too happy to do so. Enjoy! To reach Eric and his team, visit their website at https://sabatinomoto.com THE HAT: https://www.sabatinomotoshop.com/product-page/sabatino-moto-trucker-hat (lots of folks in the comments have asked about buying a hat.) - Disclaimer: I am in no way affiliated with Sabatino Moto. This is not a promotional piece. I just really enjoy these people and want them to continue doing what they do. 🐞 Get Veridian Cruise control for your Himalayan 450, or for other bikes.
