<p>On Saturday, the dealership celebrated its inaugural day in <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/topic/business/" target="_blank" aria-label="(opens in a new tab)" rel="nofollow sponsored nocode noreferrer noopener">business</a>, attracting a large turnout of enthusiasts and local community members.</p>
<p>The event featured live music and food vendors, culminating in a ribbon-cutting ceremony that marked the dealership's official launch.</p>
<p>For Evan Bache, one of the dealership’s owners, it represented a significant milestone following a prolonged journey.</p>
<p>He expressed: “It’s taken about three years to reach this moment. The path here was a long and arduous journey, but we made it—and the Harley community is with you wherever you go.”</p>
<p>The new Stonewall <a aria-label="(opens in a new tab)" href="https://www.the-sun.com/topic/harley-davidson/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow sponsored nocode noreferrer noopener">Harley-Davidson</a> dealership, situated in Greene County, <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/topic/virginia/" target="_blank" aria-label="(opens in a new tab)" rel="nofollow sponsored nocode noreferrer noopener">Virginia</a>, was honored by the presence of Karen Davidson, a prominent figure in the Harley-Davidson community, who took part in the ceremonial "chain cutting."</p>
<p>Davidson is the great-granddaughter of one of Harley-Davidson's co-founders and the daughter of Willie G. Davidson, a legendary designer and icon within the Harley-Davidson brand.</p>
<p>In addition to the chain-cutting, she engaged with fans and signed copies of her memoir, "Willie G. Davidson: Ride Free."</p>
<p>The dealership's owners also expressed their gratitude to the Buffalo Soldiers for managing traffic, along with a group of combat veterans who participated in the National Anthem ceremony.</p>
<p>This <span id="d15977a5-1f28-4d40-9605-ea4e5f400ddb" class="suggested-link">news</span> comes amidst challenges for the motorcycle giant, including rumors of a prospective $1 billion sale of its financial branch.</p>

<span class="article__bc_video-caption">Harley-Davidson's CEO faced criticism from dealers over 'constant pushing' as a seller's warning is issued on the brand's 'cultural shifts'</span>
</div>
<p>According to Business Times, unnamed sources suggest a potential interest in selling its Financial Services, which encompasses regional banks, private equity firms, and private credit entities.</p>
<p>Additionally, they are in search of a new CEO, as Jochen Zeitz announced his resignation this month after leading the company for five years.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, a new <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/topic/law/" target="_blank" aria-label="(opens in a new tab)" rel="nofollow sponsored nocode noreferrer noopener">law</a> has taken effect this week, imposing significant penalties on drivers of certain vehicles unless they conduct safety briefings for customers prior to the trip.</p>
<p>These briefings, covering emergency exit protocols, fire extinguishers, and window-breaking tools, will resemble those provided before airplane departures.</p>
<p>This legislative change follows a tragic 2018 accident involving an upstate limousine, which resulted in the death of 20 individuals, including four sisters.</p>
<p>Federal investigations revealed that state regulators repeatedly failed to adequately oversee the vehicle, which was poorly maintained.</p>
<p>The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) concluded that the crash likely resulted from the operators' “egregious disregard for safety,” leading to brake failure on a steep downhill stretch.</p>
<p>The law came into effect on April 23 in <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/topic/new-york/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">New York</a>, mandated by the NYS Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV).</p>

<div class="article-boxout__content theme__background-color-rgba-20">

<p><a href="https://www.the-sun.com/motors/12372094/harley-davidson-dealership-closure-florida/" rel="">Miracle City Harley-Davidson</a> in Titusville, Florida, closed in September 2024 with <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/motors/12378847/harley-davidson-warranty-complaint-dealership-store-closure/" rel="">no explanation</a>.</p>

<p>Reiman's Harley-Davidson dealership in Kewanee, Illinois, closed its doors in October 2024 after the owners <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/motors/12729120/harley-davidson-dealership-illinois-selling-roger-reiman/" rel="">sold the business</a> to the Walter Brothers Harley Davidson dealership in Peoria, Illinois.</p>
