Brian Taylor

Even though he worked on all makes of motorcycles, Brian quickly became famous for his work and attention to detail on European bikes, especially the Ducati motorcycle. Since Brian owned a 1979 Ducati 900 SSD, customers quickly realized that Brian could make the somewhat finicky Ducatis run to their full potential.

By the year 1991, Brian was selling, servicing, customizing and most importantly RIDING new and used Ducatis from his very own Ducati dealership…Sport Cycle. Throughout the years, Brian's meticulous work, attention to detail, passion, and focus on customer satisfaction has made Brian one of, if not the most respected Ducati technician in the country.
