We had a great visit to Legacy Harley-Davidson in Effingham ๐Ÿ๏ธ, a full-service dealership known for new and pre-owned motorcycles, service, parts, and accessories. From day one, theyโ€™ve built more than a business โ€” theyโ€™ve built a community. We were joined by Clay County IL CEO for this visit and are especially grateful to General Manager Clint Kuhns for the tour and insight!
