Fun Bike Center is a 60,000 square foot bonanza of motorcycle FUN! What started as small motorcycle dealership off Gary Road 16 years ago, Fun Bike Center (FBC) is today recognized nationally as one of the top power sport dealerships in the country.
In 2003, Daniel J. Dorsch envisioned a facility that would revolutionize the motorcycle industry. Having owned Lakeland Honda, selling Honda, Kawasaki and Yamaha since 1993, Dorsch embarked on this multi-million dollar project that not only rocked the motorcycle world in Central Florida but changed the “visual landscape” of the east entrance to Lakeland with improved landscaping, a clean parking lot and future improvements and retail entities –earning them Lakeland’s beautification award in 2007.
Situated on 5 ½ acres, Fun Bike Center is located across from the south shore of Lake Parker on Memorial Boulevard. This impressively-maintained, free-standing “superstore” is not what you’d expect from a typical motorcycle dealership! Once inside the floor-to-ceiling windowed lobby, you’ll feel like you’re in a luxury car dealership...with shine and polish bouncing off more than 700 brand new and pre-owned motorcycles, ATVs, mopeds, personal watercraft and utility vehicles.
Lead by a team of three brothers, Jordan, Nicholas and Elliott Dorsch, FBC Motorsports is a celebrated leader in the motorcycle industry. The Dorschs are referred to as “the new Mavericks” in the industry by Born To Ride Magazine for their out-of-the-box thinking with regard to marketing, retailing and advancing the consumer demand for motorcycle products and related products.
Fun Bike Center was awarded the “Best Company to Work For” in 2009 by Dealer News Magazine. The family management team attributes this and their 2010 “Top Dealer” nomination from the same magazine to having employees that love to come to work!
The company also distributes an impressive 20-page newsletter to all employees featuring company news, birthday celebrations, employee tips, industry articles, and numerous photos of company-sponsored gatherings. The FBC mission is to spread the word that motorcycling is for everyone – young, old, friends, family and foes.
FBC sponsors numerous fundraising groups and organizes benefit rides with a large percentage of proceeds given back to groups such as the Red Knights who support families of deceased firefighters.
Other charitable and non-profit organizations supported include Riding with Angels, Project Outreach, Christian Motorcycle Association, Shriner’s Hospital for Children, Florida Children’s Home, Disabled American Veterans, Fallen Firefighter Survivors Foundation, FAITH Riders, Susan G. Koman Breast Cancer Foundation and so many others.
The Lakeland Area Chamber of Commerce would like to congratulate Fun Bike Center Motorsports as the Small Business of the Month for October.
