Frank's turnaround time is fast, however his vendors are not. Buy the parts you need replacing and bring it in or else you'll be waiting forever.

Great shop with years of experience! Company name says it all, I got their big bore kit for my CRF230F and it's everything and more of what I wanted. Frank has long history of racing experience as a racer and in the pits so I knew this place is trustworthy!

Frank is everyone's guru when it comes to bikes. XR100's especially. Tune, repair, custom exhaust and big bore kits. He is the only guy in town we trust to work on our dirt bikes when we want it done right, the first time.
