They say hindsight is 20/20, but reflecting on Doubletake Mirrors it was actually 2009 — not 2020 — that Rally racer and ADV pioneer Ned Suesse founded the industry leader in dual pivot mirror systems for the Adventure and Adventure Touring motorcycle market. Over the decades, Doubletake expanded from a single SKU to four proprietary mirror styles, a proprietary arm design available in three lengths and its own uncrushable base kit. The company has also seen a shift from selling one-offs to enthusiasts at ADV gatherings to a legitimate dealer program.
This resulted in the need for representation and distribution. Enter Pacific Powersports, recently signed for US Distribution. “I am fortunate enough to have worked with Brian Cornelius for many years and watched him build Pacific Powersports,” says Tom Owens, VP of Sales for Doubletake Mirrors. “The foundation of trust and a working relationship was already there. Pacific Powersports has clearly established itself as a leader in the Adventure Motorcycle Market, with brands like Motoz Tires and Barkbusters Handguards, so it felt like a very organic fit for us,” Owens adds.
“With our multiple distribution centers, deep dealer relationships, and focus on the Adventure Motorcycle market, adding Doubletake was truly befitting of the words ‘No Brainer’” says Brian Cornelius, Founder of Pacific Powersports. “Additionally, Doubletake’s reputation and brand awareness is second to none, which makes our job that much easier.”
Pacific Powersports, based in Ontario, OR, was founded in 2002. It has distribution centers located in OR and KY, allowing it to quickly service its growing network of US dealers. In addition to Doubletake Mirrors, Pacific Powersports is the US distributor for Motoz Tires, Barkbusters Handguards, Zac Speed Hydration Back Packs, Ventura Luggage Systems and other leading brands.
