Beware of "high volume", low
"out the door" price
promises from dealers whose primary concern is getting
your money and getting YOU "out the door". Here at
MR, we believe that buying a motorcycle, ATV, or utility
vehicle is just the first step in building a relationship
and we feel that being a high volume dealer doesn't mean
we can't also be an industry leader in service and value.
MR Motorcycle has remained committed over the past 25
years to making sure that in addition to offering you the
best service, parts, and sales departments, we are also
growing our family of friends and customers. So stop by,
have a cup of coffee, and get to know us!

About Us
Doug Rudd, Owner and co-founder of MR Motorcycle.
What exactly is in the name of the largest motorcycle dealer in western North Carolina?
In 1983, Grady Miller and Doug Rudd created Miller and Rudd Honda, or M.R. Honda. Their new partnership started in a small 8,000 square foot building on the west side of Asheville. It was located between Wendy's and Carolina Tire, which at that time, was home to Asheville Honda.
A short time after their business got off the ground, Mr. Rudd bought-out his partner, which allowed Mr. Miller to concentrate on his home store, Grady Miller's Honda in Greenville, South Carolina.
Even wtihout his partner, Mr. Rudd continued with the name M.R. Honda, which soon became M.R. Honda-Kawasaki-Yamaha as each of these new manufacturers were added.
With the addition of Suzuki, the business out grew their name as well as their building, which is why we are known today as M.R. Motorcycle. We have also moved into our new location on US 25, one mile south of I-40 on the south side of Asheville.
In 2003, M.R. Motorcycle celebrated 20 years in the motorcycle business with a lot of help from our customers all over western North Carolina, northern Georgia, Eastern Tennessee, and upstate South Carolina.
Also in 2003, the Miller-Rudd partnership came full circle. Mr. Miller retired from his store in Greenville and Mr. Rudd, once again, stepped in to take up the reins. Thus, Mr.Rudd is now the proud owner of a second store, Powersports of Greenville, South Carolina.
Thus, what started out as a partnership of two men, one small building, and one vision has now become one man, two dealerships, and that same vision - being the leader in service, parts, and selection for this region and growing our family of customers every year.
We pride ourselves on offering you the best service available from our highly trained and experienced service, parts, and sales departments.
