History of the Ridley® Auto-Glide Model Family.

In 2002, Ridley Motorcycle introduced its first Auto-Glide model, the Auto-Glide 740. The model was designed to meet three rider needs; low seat height (24.5"), light weight (less than 450 dry weight), and a fully automatic transmission. After the first year of production in 2003 the popularity of the models features was evident. In subsequent years, Ridley focused on refining the models three key features which continued to drive the models success. For seven years, the Auto-Glide model was Ridley's most popular. At the end of 2009, Ridley Motorcycle halted production of all motorcycle models including the Auto-Glide due to extremely difficult economic conditions and the lack of consumer financing.

Today, the thousands of Ridley Motorcycle owners are enjoying their motorcycles as much as ever. Parts, accessories and technical assistance for all of Ridley's products is available through Ridley Genuine Parts.

In 1995, Clay Ridley hand built the first "Ridley Motorcycles" for his family without the thought of starting a business. The first motorcycles were three quarter scaled models featuring 12" wheels with an incredible finish. As word spread beyond Oklahoma City about these lighter weight motorcycles, Clay was contact by dealers who wanted to offer the motorcycles in their dealerships. The only problem, there was no Ridley Motorcycle Company. In fact, Ridley has a successful beach wear manufacturing business in Oklahoma City where his company was producing nearly 500,000 pair of sandals each year.

Interest in his motorcycles was so great that Clay Ridley and son, Jay Ridley formed Ridley Motorcycle Company in 1997 with the first production models introduced in 1999.
