Biker Rags in Knoxville, TN was created by us, Jeff and Pam Huggins. We have been the owners and operators of Biker Rags from day one.
We opened our doors in November of 1994 in a small store front on Chapman Highway.
By the fall of 1996, we had outgrown our Chapman Highway store and decided to move west.
Our Kingston Pike store opened in the fall of 1996.
From July 1998 to December 2000, we ran Repeat Rags right next to Biker Rags.
In March of 2001, we connected both sides into one longer Biker Rags.
From February 1999 to October 2002, we operated “Biker Rags Annex… in the Old City”.
Biker Rags created, promoted and sponsored Old City Bike Nite.
In July of 2004, we expanded Biker Rags on Kingston Pike into the 6500 square foot space you see today.
Biker Rags is the place to gather with friends and have swap meets.
Biker Rags sponsors charity events, bike rides and bike events.
We opened Biker Rags because we love motorcycles.
Since we opened in 1994, we have been blessed to start with an idea and humble beginnings and grow into a 6500 square foot storefront on Kingston Pike.
We pride ourselves on being an owner / operated Mom & Pop business. We strive every day to give friendly helpful service to our customers- who make all this possible.
We were fortunate to have Silas Damron join the Biker Rags team in 2004.
We love motorcycles! Since before we opened Biker Rags we have been collecting vintage and antique motorcycles. We have over 75 bikes that we rotate and display in the store.
We also display many of the bikes that Jeff loves to customize. Here are just a few:
Pamo likes to draw cartoons and display them in the store.
We hope this post has helped you to get a good idea about us and Biker Rags, where we started and where we are today. We hope it inspires you to come by the store and visit!

Great story and loved the pics. Pamo, your artwork is awesome and funny. Keep it up, we enjoyed this.
We don’t travel much, but maybe someday . . . 🙂
Thank you Anne for stopping by. We don’t travel much either- usually just within a 200 mile radius. Isn’t it wonderful that the internet can connect us!
From a gas powered golf cart, “Old Blue”, (you’ll have to ask Jeff if he remembers that one), to a screaming 2 wheeled rocket. Congrats on your longevity!
Mark- Jeff says he’ll have to put his memory hat on re: Old Blue. (He often talks about the golf course in Ottawa.)
We feel very blessed to have been in business so long.
Have a great rest of the weekend and thank you for your kind words!

West Knoxville is lucky to have you!! Brisco Darling said it best, your haircut may say big city style, but your hearts were shaped by a bowl. Always feel at home when we’re there.
