Mike Miller's dad, Ray C Miller Sr., started repairing motorcycles in his basement in the late 1950's. One of the first motorcycles Ray ever sold was a 1961 lilac which is hanging on display by the front door of our store. In 1962 Ray purchased several new Yamaha's and Ray's was born. A picture of his garage in Reading, Pennsylvania hangs above the entrance doors to our showroom. Eventually the business outgrew that home garage and relocated in 1967 to 3811 Perkiomen Avenue, Reading, Pennsylvania. In 1967, at the age of 11, Mike started working with his father every day after school. He started from the ground up, learning every department of the motorcycle dealership. In 1986, Mike became part owner and general manager of the dealership while Ray enjoyed riding and camping. Another huge milestone happened in 1986, once again the business outgrew the location. A completely new building was resurrected at its present location 5560 Perkiomen Avenue., 422 East, Reading, Pennsylvania. In July of 2012 Ray C. Miller passed away at the age of 95. Ray dedicated his life to this business. He built a solid foundation with his son and had great success. Ray enjoyed life and his family. He enjoyed riding motorcycles, and he rode them until he was 94. Today the family business is owned by Mike. Mike eats, breaths & sleeps this motorcycle shop and loves coming to work every day. He enjoys seeing his customers, employees and family. He takes great pride in business they have built.
