Club motorcycle racer, Don Becklin, started selling motorcycle gear from the attic of his grandfather's house in Grants Pass, Oregon in 1998. By 2000, Becklin's motorcycle-related Internet retail enterprise moved out of the attic into a corporate office, a warehouse, and a retail outlet in Medford, Oregon under the Motorcycle Superstore name. The company opened an additional distribution center in Louisville, Kentucky in 2010, with an attached retail outlet that opened in 2011. In May 2014, the controlling interest of Irvine, California-based Motorsport Aftermarket Group was acquired by Indianapolis-based holding company LDI Ltd. to merge Motorsport Aftermarket Group (or MAG) with a Fort Worth-based motorsport distribution company called Tucker Rocky.
