The Promise of Ride West BMW
  • More than any other factor in business, it is the caliber of the employees that determine the success of the enterprise. Ride West BMW has assembled a crew that is dedicated to YOUR satisfaction, which we say is our only route to success.
  • We take care of our people.
  • Why? Put simply, when our staff is happy, you will be happy.
  • We say that the motorcycle experience is 50% motorcycle performance, 50% dealership performance. We work with the intention that you are 100% satisfied on both accounts.

    And that is our promise to you!
About Ride West BMW
  • We use such statements as:
    At Ride West, If we haven't been there yet, we're probably going there next. Our favorite riding roads can be found here in Washington, Oregon, BC, and California... all the way to Georgia, Maine, and beyond. Between the staff, who all ride, and notable riding greats associated with our store such as Helge Pedersen or Chris Morgan, we see a *lot* of miles in any given year and always love hearing about yours.
  • That's why we claim:
    We don't just talk touring, we do touring. We specialize in products that support the touring ideal. Products like BMW motorcycles, Touratech accessories, Revit apparel, plus an array of other brands that will make touring on your motorcycle as enjoyable as it can be.
  • And so.....
    We want to be your Home Port for all your riding needs.
