 Hey, welcome back, almost. Thanks for your service in the Armed Forces.

  In Madison check out Motorcycle Performance on University Ave.. Ask for Bill Whisenant. He's really good with Ducs and SVs.

Speed Tech Motorsports in Oshkosh does great work.  Jason really knows his stuff and will actually take the time to explain anything you want to know.

Thanks for all the replies guys.  I cant wait to get home and start racing on real race tracks again!!!!  Heres a pic of the bike and a video of our track here in Hawaii.  You'll see what I mean about real race tracks.  OH I crash at the end of the vid!!!

I'll never complain about the runoff areas at Blackhawk again.  What was that track called, Isle of Armco and Phone Poles? :o  And how did that crash occur?  It almost looked like a tank slapper on-throttle at the exit.
Rule 1 of racing:  The prettiest paint jobs crash the hardest....
And I'll put in my bid for Valley Racing of Beecher Illinois.  Many championships out of that shop, from Harley to Jap twin to inline 4!  Brian is THE MAN, and he just doesn't screw anybody, unlike at least one shop I can think of....

The track is Hawaii Raceway Park and it is now closed.  They just closed it in April.  You would think that Hawaii of all places would have a nice race track!!!  From watching the video in extreme slow motion we figured that the rear tire blew out on exit.  Very bad place to crash!!!

If you want your motor to actually last all season without blowing up - I'd DEFINITELY give Matt @ MD Racing a call.  Top-notch, reliable work.

You want reliability? MD Racing, He did my RR with great results, The guy who I sold it too is having great results still and it is going strong. Just give the guy a deadline ;)
