Store owner Mike Shapiro has a keen eye for superior quality as evidenced by his huge selection of Vanson Leathers as well as other riding gear from premium manufacturers.

As Mike puts it, “ The goal of Trophy Classic Cycle & Apparel is to put the motorcyclist into the right gear for their riding style and riding conditions.” And, while other stores are limited to stock on hand, Mike is trained and experienced in custom fitting, measuring and design. From a pair of gloves to a jacket to a full road race suit, Trophy is the place to create the ultimate riding gear of your choice.

While Trophy has continued to grow over the past six years, Mike still finds time to devote to delivering classic motorcycles to his customers (check out his pristine 1976 BMW R90S and 1983 Harley Davidson XR1000 on display). This, along with his occasional duties as an Illinois Motorcycle Safety Foundation instructor, allow him a well-rounded view of the motorcycle scene.
