Vernon is 12.1 miles from the Avalon pin. Alameda Street south through the industrial corridor straight toward Avalon — the most direct run on this list, and on a bike it is simple. Twenty-five to thirty minutes. The alternate is the 710 south when traffic allows, then Avalon Boulevard. Maps pin 22025 S Avalon Blvd Ste A, CA 90745.
Almost nobody lives in Vernon. Tens of thousands of people work shifts here and ride or drive in from somewhere else, which makes the scheduling question the practical one rather than the geography. Cold storage, meat packing and rail spurs run around the clock, so a rider finishing a shift at three in the afternoon has a very different day available than one starting at six in the morning. The corridor itself is rough pavement and constant truck traffic — hard on a bike's fasteners and on anything mounted without lock ties.
AMS Pods start at $649 a pair. Chrome or gloss, crash-bar bracket and screws included, built to order in-house, about three weeks. Nothing gets invented beyond $649 a pair — the rest is quoted on your bike at the counter. A full bagger build is usually up to about ten business days in the shop, confirmed in person.
Richard makes them in Carson, in-house since 2003. Hertz Neo goes inside — small neodymium magnet, weatherproof, clear at volume. Street Glide and Road Glide take a fairing amplifier and a tank pull. On a Road King the pods carry the job and the amplifier lives in a bag on a carpeted board with an AMS quick disconnect. Lock ties on the wiring are not cosmetic on a bike that rides Vernon pavement daily — vibration is what loosens things, and it never stops here.
Street Glide, Road Glide and Road King. Harley radios in the shop are Diamond Audio, plus Sony and Soundstream. If you ride to a shift here, tell Nick when you are actually free — the useful thing is arriving early in the day rather than at the end of one, because a measurement and a conversation take unhurried time and the counter is calmest in the morning.
Vibration is the failure nobody plans for and it is specific to routes like this one. Rough pavement works on every fastener and every connector continuously, and a wire that was tucked neatly rather than tied down will eventually chafe somewhere you cannot see. That produces an intermittent that appears months later and looks like an electronics fault. Tying the run properly at build time takes ten minutes and removes the entire category of problem.
A system that survives rough industrial pavement because the wiring was tied rather than tucked. Music that clears truck noise on Alameda. Weatherproof pods. Nothing showing along the frame. Bags that come off in seconds. And a build scheduled around your shift rather than around ours.
Alameda Street south through the industrial corridor — 12.1 miles, twenty-five to thirty minutes, or the 710 south when traffic allows. AMS Pods from $649 a pair, about three weeks built to order. Tied wiring beats tucked wiring on this pavement.
Same bay, same trip. Car audio is LA Car Beats at lacarbeats.com — a shift worker's truck spends real hours on this corridor. Window tint is LA Car Tint at lacartint.com — 3M Authorized Dealer, and a vehicle parked on an industrial street all day gets hot. Vehicle security is LA Car Alarm at lacaralarm.com — all-day street parking and tool theft.
Monday through Saturday, 9:30 AM to 6:00 PM. Sunday closed, walk-ins welcome. Pods are about three weeks built to order, so the first visit is a measurement and a conversation. Nick writes the quote, Zack runs the floor. A Payment Plan is available at the counter once the bike is quoted. Google shows 4.8 from 654 reviews.
If you ride a shift in Vernon, come down Alameda before the shift rather than after it — and bring the wiring that somebody tucked instead of tying. Call or text (310) 513-8800 and ask for Nick. 22025 S Avalon Blvd Ste A, CA 90745.

No. There is no Vernon motorcycle storefront. AMS Pods is the Harley bagger-audio side of Audio MotorSports at 22025 S Avalon Blvd Ste A, CA 90745 — 12.1 miles straight down Alameda.
Vibration works on every fastener and connector continuously. A wire tucked neatly rather than tied down eventually chafes somewhere you cannot see.
Pods start at $649 a pair — chrome or gloss, bracket and screws included, built to order in-house, about three weeks.
Street Glide, Road Glide and Road King. Those three only on these pages.
Early in the day rather than at the end of one. A measurement and a conversation take unhurried time, and the counter is calmest in the morning.
No. On this corridor they remove an entire category of intermittent fault that otherwise shows up months later looking like an electronics failure.
Yes, both take a fairing amplifier and a tank pull so nothing runs visibly along the frame.
Usually up to about ten business days in the shop, confirmed in person once the bike is on the floor.
Yes. A Payment Plan is available at the counter after the bike is quoted. Payment Plan is the only name for it.
Car audio, window tint, and vehicle security — plus Harley bagger audio on the AMS Pods side. Body work, wraps, paint protection film, and auto glass are other trades; we'll point you to someone good rather than guess.
