Brian Klock, President of Klock Werks Kustom Cycles and designer of the patented Flare™ Windshield, has been named an industry leader and influencer by Power Sports Business Magazine recently.
“It’s truly an honor and a very humbling experience to be named by PSB as one of the leaders in our industry,” Klock said. “Some of the greatest businessmen in our industry have been recipients of this award. It means a lot to me, but also to my team who have put in countless hours making Klock Werks what it is today.”
Powersports Business is considered a leading publication and news source in the industry. Powersports-related businesses, such as dealers, industry professionals, repair/service shops and retail locations, can gain beneficial information on trends, best practices and key business statistics that help them develop more profitable and sustainable businesses. Each year, Powersports Business names Industry Leaders as part of a special issue, and Brian Klock, President of Klock Werks Kustom Cycles was featured as one of them for 2015.
Brian was named alongside other leaders such as Larry Little, Vice President and General Manager of Motorcycle Group/AIM Expo, Tim McKercher, President of LOOK Marketing, Mike Webster, President of Motorcycle Group/AIM Expo, and Executive of the Year, Holger Mohr, President, Kuryakyn. Each leader was featured in the issue and shared insight for the industry, as well as their own stories.
“PSB shared our story of diversification, as well as some of the challenges that Klock Werks has faced. This type of information can be helpful to other small businesses that may experience the same types of issues,” said Brian Klock. Klock went on to share his opinion about what he feels is the biggest opportunity for the industry currently. “I feel this needs to be initiated by OEM’s. If OEM’s would embrace the aftermarket, the entire industry will be stronger. The more we become user friendly with each other, the better we’re going to be. We need to lock shields for the industry, not lock shields against each other.”
