About Report

Morrie's Place was founded in the 1940's when Morrie Gauger began buying, selling and fixing motorcycles. He first became a dealer for BSA, and with his wife Ruth, opened Gauger Cycles in 1954 on the family farm in a small workshop. Over the years he added on to that building multiple times to accommodate the Triumph, Norton, Matchless, Ducati and BMW marquees to the business.

Part Number Conversion Report

Most part numbers are now 6 digits - frequently beginning with 04 or 06, and followed by 4 digits. Norton part numbers on our website do not include the (-) like the Triumph and BSA numbers. We have tried to update all of the early numbers on the site with the updated part number. If desired, there is a "Supersession and Amended Part Number List" available as part number 005753.

Awesome Old School Cycle shop. Take a step back in time. The sights, the smells, and real cycle enthusiasts! A gem of a joint! Not to be missed.

Called them for a quote. No one answered so I left a message. That was 3 weeks ago. No phone call back from them.

This place is like an amazing museum full beautifully maintained classic British motorcycles. I love going there just to look all these bikes. Jake is the head mechanic despite his young age he’s got incredible mechanic skills and knows exactly what he’s doing. He’s very modest and comes across as honest guy who really loves what he does. He went beyond what I expected in getting my 72 Tiger in shape. He checked the whole bike not just install the new ignition switch. He changed what he saw need to changed to make the bike safe. He not only replace the front cable but inspected and corrected

Can't say enough good things about the service. I brought in a hub and a rim and told them to put it together with no other spacing information. Jon was able to do some research and custom order spokes and trued the wheel perfect for me. Will give them more of my business.

The only place I'd let service my vintage Triumph motorcycle. They have 3 generations of experience. that's a lot of knowledge. They can find those elusive bits your searching for, probably have them in stock. Lots of classic bikes for sale in store.

What can I say a virtual icon. I stop in whenever I am in the area. If you need service for your British bike this is the place to take it to. Nuff said

Ed's work is superb, his wealth of knowledge and experience help keep my 73 T140 running strong. Now working on my 69 T120 bobber project. Thanks Ed.!

The owner, Ed Zender is one of the nicest most knowledgeable guys you will ever meet. After spending around $150 my first visit, I got about $200 worth of advice. He definitely takes the time in explaining things no matter how busy he is. im not sure how he does it, but his prices are the best I've seen...including online vendors.

There are good repair shops and then there are some that simply are the way it was years ago. If you have a vintage British motorcycle, this is the place to go to.
