Well folks, we’ve been SLAMMED this spring – and we aren’t complaining. We’ve been working out hind ends off to make sure your parts and services happen in a timely fashion. A few things are behind schedule, mostly complete engine builds and other labor intensive jobs such as fork shaving and rebuilding. I apologize for […]
WE NO LONGER SELL COMPONENTS FOR THIS SWAP – Read carefully the instructions below on how to install this system on your XS650 *If you search Ebay for a ” Pitbike Hydraulic Clutch” – you should be able to find a setup similar to what is pictured below. You’ll want about 50″ of Hose, or […]
Got this engine in today from a third party. The new owner purchased it from Ebay, and had it shipped here… Poor packaging at it’s finest.. Just an FYI, a Cardboard Box is NOT enough protection against shipping damages. Even though this engine was completely gutted, it was still damaged badly… Finding all the […]

Complete with Tapered Bearings, this will bolt up and fit like OEM, with no need for shims, adapters, etc.. You’ll have to forgive the ugly headtube, I use it for […]
Alot of Japanese, British and French bikes have those funny little rubber mounts under the tank. I wanted to reuse the OEM tank mounts on my Motobecane tank, but I had to get a bit creative making that happen. Here is what I am describing. You can see the half cup mounts, that typically ride […]
To all my customers: We are expanding our production and parts line, as well as our services offered. We have just doubled our shop space, and will need to take some time to get reorganized, get some new equipment in place, and get our new office finished. We are still in the same location, just […]
Pretty lame winter so far. I rode my wife’s Hot Rod Rebel to work on February 1st, if that tells ya anything. It has been hard to get into the “winter build” groove when the weather is soo nice outside. So we started taking Friday’s off from customer work in the shop, so we can […]
