Motorcycle dealership opens, craft brewer set to celebrate, seniors get indoor gardens

Northwest Harley-Davidson in Lacey has opened a new motorcycle dealership: Northwest Royal Enfield.

“Royal Enfield is one of the newest motorcycle brands in North America, but globally, the brand has been around since 1901,” its website reads. The brand got its start in England.

The new dealership opened this month and will share space at the Northwest Harley-Davidson location at 8000 Freedom Lane NE in Lacey, said Emily Slawski, marketing manager for the business. That address is near the Walmart on Galaxy Drive Northeast.

Harley-Davidson motorcycles appeal to a certain kind of rider, who wants to use it for touring, she said. The Royal Enfield, she believes, will cater to a younger rider looking for every-day use.

“We just want to offer bikes for all walks of life,” she said.

Northwest Royal Enfield is open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesdays through Fridays, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturdays and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sundays. For more about the new dealership, go to https://www.royalenfieldnw.com/. For more about Royal Enfield, go to https://www.royalenfield.com/
