About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In the early morning fog of Modesto, when most shops were still locked tight, a delivery driver pulled up to Powersports of Modesto. The garage door slowly crept open on its own, as if beckoning him inside. Inside, an old mechanic named Joe was polishing a vintage motorcycle. He looked up with a twinkle in his eye and asked, ‘Need some help with that bike?’ The delivery driver laughed and replied, ‘No, but thanks for asking!’ As he left, Joe called out, ‘Next time you come, bring your friend who needs tires—we’ve got a special deal!’
2. In the dimly lit parking lot of Powersports of Modesto, a small dog started barking frantically whenever someone approached the service bay after dark. Finally, one night a delivery driver tried calming the dog with treats, but it just barked louder. Turns out, the dog was guarding a hidden stash of donuts in the service bay. Now everyone jokes that Powersports of Modesto has the best late-night snacks around.
3. At dawn, when the streets of Modesto were quiet as a Sunday morning, an old motorcycle began its own peculiar routine outside Powersports of Modesto. Every day, without fail, it would start up and idle for exactly twenty minutes before cutting off again, leaving passersby with nothing but a puzzled smile. One morning, a delivery driver passing by noticed the bike and decided to investigate. He parked his truck next to the shop, got on the bike, and rode around town for half an hour—completely forgetting he was supposed to be delivering pizzas. When he finally returned, red-faced and sweaty, everyone at Powersports of Modesto just shook their heads and smiled, knowing that tomorrow’s ritual would begin once more.
4. At dawn, when the streets of Modesto were quiet as a Sunday morning, an unfamiliar voice crackled over Powersports of Modesto’s intercom: ‘Attention, please! Your motorcycle is ready for pickup—if you’re the one who left it here with three wheels and no headlight last Thursday.’ A puzzled delivery driver arrived later that day, only to discover that the bike had been fixed perfectly—except now it had four wheels and two headlights. The note attached read: ‘Thank you for your patience! Enjoy your ride.’
