Shawn Mehaffey, Marketing Manager from Mosites Motorsports made a presentation regarding their plans for the new BMW dealership in Pittsburgh . . . Continuted Here
Mosites has Purchased BMW Motorcycles of Pgh. Dealership
The BMW Motorcycles of Pittsburgh shop is being sold. The sale should close this week with Mosites Motorsports in North Versailles. Mosites is a large dealer with a variety of manufacturers and all types of motorcycles including: CanAm, Ducati, Honda, KTM, Kawasaki, Motus, Mahindra (ATV), Ski Doo, Sea Doo, Spyder and Triumph.
I visited the Mosites shop and spoke to them about support of our Rally a couple of years ago. It’s a big shop. They have had Ducati for some time. For several years, they have tried to get the BMW franchise for the south in Pittsburgh. Now they will have it for the entire Pittsburgh area.
Mosites is outfitting a new building in North Versailles, at the current Motorsports location. It will be a BMW, Triumph and Ducati shop and will open about March, 2020. In the meantime, BMW parts and service in Pittsburgh is on hold. You may be able to order parts from Mosites in the meantime.
I know this is not all you want to know. However, when the deal is closed, later this week, I will get more information. There will also be a Press Release from Mosites with further details.
During the BMW shop transition, Kissell Motorsports in Tyrone, PA can handle any BMW parts, service or sales. -- John H.
Welcome to the Four Winds BMW Riders club, founded in the early 60's by a small group of BMW enthusiasts in western PA. The first Four Winds Rally was held in 1967. We host the longest consecutively running BMW rally in the country, predating the existence of any national BMW club. We're located in the Pittsburgh metro area and enjoy excellent riding here and in Ohio, West Virginia and Maryland.
MOA Getaways are hotel/resort based events for those who enjoy riding to faraway places but don't camp. Some 
call these events rallies, but with crowds of less than 100 and a sense of exploration, this isn't the traditional motorcycle rally. MOA honchos do the legwork of getting the dinners set up and negotiate room discounts. All you have to do is show up, ride great roads, visit with old friends and meet new ones!
