What an experience Whole thing took less than an hour. The sales staff has it down to a science Ive finally got my dream bike thanks to all their hard work. If you are in the market for an upgrade, you really need to go see them Told them what I wanted for my trade, said I wouldnt take a penny less. Not even so much as an argument I got an incredible deal lightning fast.
Steve was great. I will do all my services at this shop even thou it is a 90 minute drive. Will buy my next Harley from them too.
Amazing bikes and very friendly and knowledgeable staff! If you are looking and are unsure of what you want, talk to Jeff Laughlin. He will get you set up with the bike that is right for you.
Absolute best dealership in Illinois. I purchased a 2016 Ultra Limited from them about 2 months ago and needed their help. I was concerned with a few components on the bike after riding for the last month so I gave them a call and expressed my concerns. Not only was I treated with the absolute best customer service imaginable, but they drove over an hour to my house and picked up my bike and took it back to the dealership for further inspection FREE OF CHARGE. These guys go above and beyond. that level of customer service is rare, but thats just the normal for them! 11/10 would recommend! thanks again to everyone at WINDY CITY MOTORCYCLE COMPANY!BEST OF THE VERY BEST!
Very helpful before I bought trike and after . Dont find that very much anymore .
I got a flat on my ride out to Starved Rock park. Anthony from Starved Rock Harley got to me quick and hauled my bike back to the dealership. Josh from Starved Rock Harley Processed my flat getting it covered under the warranty. This all happened at the end of the work day. Anthony hustled to change the tire and Josh processed the warranty to get me back on the road.Thank you both very much!Don
Just want to say Thanks to Scott, Jeff, Glen and Dakota for all your quick help today with my issue on my 2017 Heritage Softail. I have dealt with other Harley dealers in the past but Starved Rock Harley Davidson being 30 minutes away will always be my go to Dealer for all my motorcycle needs these guys are the best and there staff is awesome.
Nice people. Jeff is an easy going guy to deal with.
Had a blast. Staff super friendly and had a great time at their 5th yrs anniversary.
Just bought a new 2021 Street Glide CVO... our sales guy Scott was upfront and made the process painless.
The staff here are a great group of people. They were honest, informative, and really helpful. They didnt pressure me, but did everything they could to make sure all my questions were answered, and that I felt welcomed like family!
Had a great conversation with a Manager. Really changed my look on Starve Rock Harley. They have a whole new team ready to serve customers right! Had a huge issues with the old managment and mechanics. I will definitely be stopping back in, first time in 4 yrs! Thanks Tim.
Great Experience. Friendly staff
Just passing through and wanted to get a t-shirt. Everyone was very friendly.
Called for a week with cash in hand to buy a bike.. never bothered to return my calls. Filled out a credit application just to get their attention a week later... They still didnt call. Sold the bike I was trying to purchase and then argued with me that I had not called at all. Save your time and money, go somewhere else
Found the bike I purchased online. Steve made the deal very easy. The dealership was great every time I called. Also received free shipping which was huge as a ride to Chicago at Christmas wasnt happening. Will tell everyone I know to check these guys out before they buy a new/different bike!
Great staff and store. We went in looking for pet apparel they did not have any. The dogs got tons of attention from staff and customers, they love that. We felt so welcome and being from out of town were very pleased with service of staff.
Great place to buy motorcycle gear and other items. I bought a magnetic phone holder for our bike and it works great!
Second time I had something done here, 1st time was oils all changed and go over it to see if it had issues, ok all I got told was its ok, youd figure with what you pay for anything to get done theyd take pride and send someone out to talk about what issues might be coming, I got nothing, and that time didnt clean up oil mess from old doing the job, second time was to change clutch cable they did go above and help me out with a broke part I broke, but when I left the cop pulled next to me and said something about a headlight, so my headlight wasnt working, went back and they blame my light for not working had to tape connection, ok I was fine with all that, but I got home and went to wipe dust off and found they didnt wipe down anything, this was why I took it it cause I didnt want to have to do it, now Im home when I planned to ride with a huge cleaning project, not that any of this is a huge deal, its that it should be part of the job they do, it sucks cause people are great in every department
Everyone was friendly and welcoming. We had a great experience and are very happy with our purchase. Id highly recommend Starved Rock Harley-davidson.
Very friendly and knowledgeable staff nice selection of new and used motorcycle. They went out of their way to make me feel like a member of the Harley family
Though I do appreciate Starved Rock Harley Davidson helping me with some repairs on my 2006 Softail Deluxe, I am surprised at the quality of work performed by one of their master technicians. What would seem like a simple procedure.... to mount and balance tires has left me somewhat confused. When mounting the new “engraved whitewall” tire on the front wheel, the technician failed to remove the existing spoke weights before proceeding to balance the wheel. To balance the wheel, a total of 12 stick on .5 oz. weights were applied to the front wheel. The bike has HD Chrome 80 spoke wheels, and after calling several other Harley dealers I was informed by that the “chrome spoke weights” should be used to keep the aesthetics in line with the appearance of the wheel. The stick on weights are not meant to be used on this type of wheel, but used on mag type wheels. I called the service department and spoke with someone, trying to get this straightened out, as I am feeling rather disappointed. The response was not what I wanted to hear, service department said that they did not have spoke weights to fit my wheels and this is why they use the tape weights. This is even more confusing now because my front wheel still has spoke weights on it in addition to the 12 tape weights they applied. This the same dealership that installed and balanced these wheels using spoke weights when originally installed. 😕October 28.... I did speak with Tim today (General Manager) and I will be taking the bike back to Starved Rock HD this Spring for them to re-balance the front wheel with spoke weights at no charge. Thanks Tim!
Great place. Very helpful staff.
Go with a different company go to Reimans Harley-Davidson go to any other Harley shop just dont go to Starved RockLooked at a sun glow red 2009 night FXSTB. Tire are 40% life on them 23k miles and massive dent in the fender!They where asking 10k or 11.675 with tax title and license. An would only come down $500 bucks. After a 66m loan the bike would have been 15k with interest. The staff as well as the manager was absolutely rude disrespectful and down right ignorant in there approach towards their customers. The fact that the owner said $500 off is all for a used bike?I found one the same year less miles and no damage for 9k. Even showed nada site that says 9k showed them the bike still didnt care dont buy a bike from these clowns.Piss poor bike selection and horrible sales staff..
New bike rider. I was nervous walking in here because i don’t know alot about motorcycles. However, they weren’t pushy and didn’t make me feel stupid for asking questions. Very warm and welcoming. I look forward to purchasing my first bike from you!
Really nice Harley Davidson shop.
Very kind, respectful, good people, you walk in and feel like youve been greeted by family
Steve Crocker and the entire team at Starved Rock Harley-Davidson did an absolutely amazing job getting me the exact bike I wanted.In my 25+ years of buying and riding bikes all over this country, Ive never had a dealership treat me as well as Starved Rock Harley-Davidson!I will absolutely come back when Im ready for my next Harley
Went in for a simple screw and they dont carry it.
These people have been great to work with.
Outstanding customer service.
Amazing dealership thats not just trying to make a sale. They want you to get the right bike for you and will do everything they can to make that happen. They gave me a amazing deal on my trade in as well
Nice friendly people great service
I bought my first brand new harley from here with the help of Steve. He went above and beyond to help me get the bike of my dreams. Very friendly staff, and great service. Thank you to everyone at starved rock HD especially Steve. Whether your in the market for a bike, or simply want to do some clothes/parts shopping dont hesitate to go here. They will treat you like your family with its friendly and welcoming atmosphere. They are very polite and very helpful with whatever you may need.
I was riding on Route 6 and got a flat tire. I called this dealer and explained I was stranded with a flat and was about 15 min from their shop. I could slowly get it there, as I had nowhere else to go on a Sunday for service. The guy in service talked to his manager and responded with sorry, we are too busy. I was hoping a fellow Harley riding brother would get some help while stranded on the road, but apparently this was too much to ask. I have been a loyal customer of Harley Davidson for years and when I needed some reasonable help they had no desire to assist. I am very disappointed and this dealer needs to remember what riding is all about. Its not just about stealing my money.
Thank you for all your help while i was on vacation.
Went here to buy a few Christmas presents for the wife. They had a great selection of clothing and was able to easily buy a few things. There pricing is typical of a Harley Davidson dealer. The staff was very friendly and helpful to me, they helped me find something specific I was looking for. Great place to hang out and checkout motorcycles and clothing.
They have some good looking bikes and nice selection of clothing. Glad we stopped!!
Friendly sales staff. If you are looking for a motorcycle, this is a great place to start.
Horrible customer service. Bad selection and every time you go in the employees act like you’re bothering them. I drive twice the distance to Conrad’s, at least they are helpful.
Steve and Ryan were awesome . They were very helpful and very nice to talk to . Would definately recommend them if youre looking for a new motorcycle.
Went there today with the boyfriend no one greeted us or said anything whole time we were there but others got talked to. Kinda bs usually people are nice there.
Great place to visit.
I worked with Steve on buying a bike. Down to earth. He talked in a language I could understand seeing Im not a motorcycle savvy person. Everyone is friendly, they treat you as family.
Very friendly service.
Good bunch of people to work with. Been going there for years
We went in too look and get some prices, we talked to Tim who was very helpful
Love this place. Would highly recommend stopping in
Very helpful and cheaper then any other dealership
Starved Rock Harley, you are an outstanding example of what it means to be part of a brotherhood of riders. While driving a Yamaha scooter west across the country, I experienced a dead battery the morning of 30 July 2018, in Ottawa, IL. Yamaha dealerships are closed on Mondays, but Starved Rock Harley was open and there to help! They quickly picked up my bike, charged the battery, and I was on my way again. Rock solid dealership with an excellent service and sales staff. Thanks again Starved Rock Harley!
Fantastic
Awesome place. Very helpful. I have been searching for months for a bike. Shopping online, traveling across state to find the right bike. Went to Stared Rock. And salesperson name Scott. But he called Jr. Very patient, accommodating. I bought 17 Roadster. Have since went back for hel.ent shoes and jacket. I will not spend money at Conrads. Their not good people like Stared Rock employees. Thanks Jr.
On a trip and quick resolution to bike problem. Quickly fixed to get us back on the road. Extremely friendly and helpful staff! Love em!
Great place. no hi pressure sales tactics. got me financed and on a bike with no problems. would reccomend to anyone looking for a bike.
Traveling cross country my wife got a flat tire. There service department got us right in replaced her tire and got us back on the road. Very friendly and professional staff. Thanks again.
Im a local here in ottawa and have bought a couple bikes here, not bad as far as finding a bike. I do have a problem with service though. I paid cash for a stage 3 to be installed, was told itd take a week for parts and a day to install. It has been 2 weeks now and I still have no bike and on the last nice day it looks like for a while. Ive called several times and it just seems like there is one problem after the other. I just dont recommend getting your bike serviced here unless its something simple like an oil change.
Very friendly Amazingly clean.. If you are in the area you need to stop in.
I had an issue and Tim was quick to respond with genuine concern. He emphasizes the fact that family takes care of family. Thats all i needed to hear. Because family is suppose to help its members come to a resolution to issues that affect the well being of the relationship. Thank you Tim
Great we bought a bike there today!
Great shop great service- I had to run my bike in for a quick repair, dropped it off Saturday afternoon and Monday morning they called and it was ready to go. Staff here is super nice and everyone is very accommodating.
We had just picked up our new rehomed pup in Chicago, let us bring him in to shop, wow, great time and beautiful store
I just purchased a bike from Starved Rock Harley this last Saturday, what a great experience to actually deal with someone that is looking out for the buyer.Scott Heneisen was excellent, he went way way out of his way to make me happy with the purchase, bike wise and cost.The management and whole staff are excellent, you should come here for your next purchase.
This Dealership out in The Cornfield of Illinois, is outstanding. We went to Chicago for a quick Vacation. And on the way home my wife had an accident on her Triglide. We were in Morris, Illinois. A guy recommended Starved Rock. We called for a tow truck. It came out of Ottawa. They towed us to Starved Rock. The staff was awesome and accommodating when we arrived. We left there Two up on my Triglide. Back home to western Iowa. They took care of everything with the insurance and got a call on Friday 8/23 to come and get it. We drove over and on 8/24 we picked it up. It was done when they said it would be. They even went out of their way to make sure we were satisfied. And while it was there they installed Vance and Hines stage 1 on it ( pipes, fuelpak3 and air cleaner. With that said. I say thank you again to Tim, and Service manager Josh. If we ever need help again in that area we know who to call. And I will recommend them to my friends if they need anything in that area. If I had 10 stars that is what they would get. Top Notch Shop. Thanks again. So anyone just going down I-80. Stop in at Ottawa at Starved Rock and enjoy some good old down to earth hospitality.
Didnt have my size in the shirt I wanted but overall service was great.
Great service, awesome staff.
If you want personalized attention this is the place to go.
Whether Im riding or driving, I usually stop at SRHD. Theres a lot of clothes and accessories to check out. Bought a bike from SRHD a few years ago. They were very fair and took good care of the bike. And, KimberLee answers all of my questions about rolling inventory... even though she knows a purchase is a long shot. Good people! A good stop!
Reasonable amout of used harleys, good prices
Dont buy here they are better then you and rude. Go where you are celebrated and appriciated! Judy is a joke so are the rest of them. Unless you buy a bike then they are kind untill they got your money then its back to sub-human. Stuck up
Luv this store
Purchased my bike last week from Scott @ Starved Rock HD. Scott went out of his way to keep me informed of the sales process every step of the way. The entire staff @ SRHD was friendly and made me feel welcome and at home while I was there. Outstanding service - thank you Scott and team!
Great ppl .. great service.. had a problem and they gave us the tools to fix it .. love them .. thank you
Awesome people great service they have a customer for life
Nice people, great service. Buy your next bike here. Keep the shiny side up!
Bought my 2011 fxdc there back in 2018. Tim and Scott were very helpful.
Very nice store!! Of course the clothing is not for bigger people. Harley Davidson needs to thing about the bigger riders as well
Great nice stuff lots of bikes cool shirts and nice people!!!
Nice place to mingle & get away
My husband bought a bike from Ottawa Harley. Worst experience ever! It’s winter they picked up his trade in to determine value, He choose a bike the finance and set up delivery day. The guys told him since its not his bike anymore they did drop his trade in getting it off the trailer and had a few things to fix. (No big deal its theirs now) (mark was even a nice a guy and gave them all original parts back so they could fix their bike they dumped) . Delivery day I’m waiting for the hr window they gave me it comes n goes. My husband called to make sure delivery went well they told him it was delivered. It was but to the wrong house we are 123 n blah st they delivered it to 123 s blah st. (Thankful we are a small town and they dropped it off at an abondonded house) . Mark gets off work and goes to pick up his bike down the street. No keys its in the run position (anyone could have taken the bike) . Mark calls and they say oh yeah by the way we have to order keys. Now mind you they delivered his trade in here picked up his trade in at the correct address so not sure why they got so confused in a village of 500 hundred people. ( again small mishaps no biggie right) . When we were deciding to get the new one asked it had been dropped or wrecked there was a scuff on the handle bars. The guy says no I’ve never been lied to this bike is amazing. It has a custom paint job and tons of upgrades. Now a couple days after delivery and the mishaps thus far a harley badge falls off the tank revealing a dent and scuff the size of a golf ball. Now we are mad and take off the other badge to make sure there are no other defects harley was hiding. This custom bike had been wrecked and they straight lied to us. Treated us like we were fools and they thought they could dupe us. Called them to see how they wanted to fix this. They came and picked up the bike (right house) and took it back to ottawa to determine what they were gonna do. After a week of no word I called to see their game plan. They told us they were gonna seal the spot so it didn’t rust and cover it back up with a badge. ( I dont know a single custom paint job that’s covered by badges) I politely let him know that it was important to keep better contact with us so they would know that thats not an acceptable solution. They decided to repaint the tank and do this right. We have now went and looked at the bike since the paint was redone.(made a payment already on the new bike to give you a sense of time) Thankful they painted it and didn’t argue however now we have a bike that has a custom paint (tank doesnt match the fenders in color or flames design) . They have completely ruined the exciting experience we should have. I’m upset they were scandalous from the get go. My husband works hard and is so kind and they walked over that and left him completely not satisfied. He doesn’t even want this now
Ive always like this small town Harley Dealer. Its not a super store but contains everything you need.
Nice place
Awesome an they are so nice...love this store..
Never have parts when you need one.takes forever to get parts ordered. But they have 5 million tshirts for you to buy.I wouldnt waste your time with this place.
Great service and friendly staff
Very friendly great customer service.
Called them asking about cost to do tires on my Yamaha vstar 1100 total cost $600. Thats outrageous
Love the motorcycle and the display they have.
Very friendly, helpfull, do a great job at fixing Harleys!!
Great service. Parts on time.
Stopped here one Monday night after dinner with my wife. Wasnt even looking to trade my bike in, but i couldnt resist. They gave me great money on my FLHTC and a great price on a FLHX that i fell in love with. Friendliest staff around. Never rush you out the door at closing like other dealers do. Its an hour from my house. But its my go to dealership!
I had the Best experience with Starved Rock HD back in December!!! I walked out of a another dealership that decided to jack me around even though I bought two bikes in the last 6 months from them. I contacted Tom V. at Starved Rock HD and we had a deal and financing worked out in 15 minutes! Absolutely my best bike buying experience ever! The service department is awesome and the parts counter is very knowledgeable.The ladies in the retail store went out of their way to help me find some warm gear for the ride home! No games No gimmicks very straight forward! Thanks to Tom V. and the team at Starved Rock HD I am a customer for life!
Very helpful
Being from the area I use to go to Starved Rock HD it Was always an ok experience, but the previous owners were there downfall. Currently they are under new ownership and I would recommend going there if the previous owners turned you away. Here is my latest experience I was traveling back home and had a issue with my 2016 streetglide, had no appointment and showed up they were willing to help and fix the issue they overnighted the part and was fixed the next day. Highly recommend going in and checking it out
Salesman Steve was great!
Friendly, nice store. Recommend
The Team at Starved Rock HD are awesome!! They will go out of their way to make sure you are squared away with all your HD needs.
Nice place and its a harley place, what more could you want!
