Rich Venturi Parts Manager Phone: 707-462-1672 ext. 2
I was orphaned at an early age. I spent many years in an orphanage in San Francisco until I was 13 years old when I was adopted by a biker, Trevor "Raptor" Venturi and his ol' lady, Adriana. They taught me the way of the biker lifestyle and I have lived it ever since. I learned how to work on bikes and that respect is earned not given. Harley-Davidson motorcycles and products have been my life for many years. In 2011, I met my lifelong traveling partner Kim and in 2015, she and I were married. We travel many miles every year on our Harleys. Kim rides a 2014 Street Bob and I ride a 2015 Road Glide. We love the touring experience we get while on our road trips. We have traveled over the majority of the Western United States and Canada. In 2015 we travelled to Sturgis for our honeymoon, spending a full three weeks on the road. Life doesn't get any better. I am proud to be the Parts Manager here at Gunnink's Harley-Davidson.

Allen O. Parts Associate Phone: 707-462-1672 ext. 2
Allen's first recollection of riding motorcycles goes back to when he was about five years old, riding on the gas tank of his uncle Larry's Sportster... He thought he was hot stuff riding with him. He purchased his first Harley-Davidson, 1997 Sportster, in 2002 and now riding his third Harley, a 2012 Road Glide Ultra. It took him 59 years to get a job at a Harley-Davidson dealership, of course, the best dealership at that.
