Motomentum Monthly News - September 2023
Parts Unlimited NVP Show Recap
Hosted by one of our distributors, Parts Unlimited, the NVP show happens twice a year: once in the late winter in Louisville and once in the late summer in Madison. The 2-day event allows dealers to connect with some of the industry’s top brands, as well as get hands-on experience with many new products that are unveiled during the show. We were able to make numerous new connections and had a chance to chat with quite a few longtime friends as well.
With another successful NVP trip marked in the Motomentum books, we’re already looking forward to next year! It was recently announced that the late fall show will be moved to the newly-renovated Wisconsin Center in Milwaukee, Wisconsin next year, so we’re excited to check out the new space!
Speaking of exciting announcements, stay tuned for next month’s First Friday Freebies on October 6th, as we have a killer giveaway featuring several NVP show brands! 😎 Be on the lookout our GO-LIVE announcement on Facebook and Instagram or watch for our email!

Shakers Public House Fundraiser
At the beginning of this month, we learned that our friends at Shakers Public House, a local restaurant, had experienced a major fire. Thankfully, no one was hurt, but the inside of the restaurant sustained significant fire, smoke, and water damage. Our neighbors at Buckeye City Motorsports hosted a fundraiser benefiting Shakers last Saturday, so we donated two $250 Motomentum to the cause. The fundraiser was a huge success, and Shakers will be able to host their first ghost kitchen at Amvets 1928 Lewis Hall starting October 2nd! If you’re local, you can find all the info on the Shakers Public House Facebook page.
