    Thanks for all the input!
    t71ford,

    I'm on the "yup! It'll fly" side of the fence. As long as you're in the idea/concept stage then I have a few ideas and preferences: take'm if they fit your business model or throw'em out if they don't.

    If I was doing Montana with my XS I'd prob'ly stop in just cause your a fellow XS'er. But for the rest...they'd need a reason to put Bozeman on the GPS route. In a perfect world I'd walk in to your place and see:

    Widescreen TVs playing repeats of classic motorcycle road races or one actually happening. Kinda like a sports bar but then I feel that anything played with balls is a game: anything with wheels is a real sport.

    One of those old arcade style motorcycle games. The kind where people can actually sit on a mock bike and lean from side to side as the game plays. Not that I'd try it: I'm a little too large. But I would make it a point to visit your cafe if there were a contest at night where the ladies would don gloves, helmet, boots, and compete against each other for the title of best racer. What the ladies wore as they clambered right and left over the tank would be up to the individual contestant and how much applause the audience provides. Prize money yet to be decided....

    A smiling young waitress wearing a Yamaha jersey and shorts if the weather permits. I'm a big fan of Hooters, the restaurant. Suzuki, Honda, and Kawasaki waitresses would put me in a quandary as far as whether to stay loyal to my bike's make or to choose another waitress for the obvious reasons. In the end it wouldn't really matter as long as I get my beer and appetizer of deep fried mushrooms.

    I'm not saying turn it into a "Coyote Ugly" place or somewhere a stripper pole/raised dance floor is part of the floor plan. But there's something to be said for a business plan which includes a "Ladies Night" where I could enter after 10:00 PM after paying the cover charge....
