Northern California-based shop TPJ Customs was at Sturgis City Park during the 75th Anniversary of the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, showing off their new parts. Their booth featured a custom Indian Scout and a custom Indian Chief Classic.
“It was really significant to be a part of Sturgis’s 75th Anniversary,” said Bryan Schimke, owner of TPJ Customs, “and Indian enthusiasts were really energized about our custom options. All in all, it was an experience we’re not going to soon forget.”
Over the course of the rally, TPJ conducted positive discussions with distributors, sold a lot of parts and received several serious inquiries about ground-up custom Indian bike builds.
TPJ’s new parts line features 17 unique parts for Indian Scouts and Chiefs, including seat mounts, pegs, handlebar risers, ignition and clutch covers, head- and taillight mounts, exhaust tips, seat pans and more. In other words, Indian Motorcycle owners can finally start customizing their bikes with top-quality parts made in the USA, and there are now myriad options and combinations available to them.
“We were very gratified by the interest we got from distributors,” says Schimke. “And the response from rally goers was really positive.”
