New Sign and a New Bike


We finally got a sign after 5 years in business, courtesy of Britt Lawson, who freehand drew the letters and then cut 3/16" plywood out with a scrollsaw. So now you can find us easier when cruising down Forbes Avenue. Thanks Britt!

In front of our new sign is our newest bike, a 1967 Suzuki K15P, also known as the "Hillbilly" - a street/trail that was their rival to the hugely popular Honda CT90. The big difference is that this one is 80cc and a two-stroke, and has two different sprockets in the back, the idea being that you could have one chain on the small sprocket for street riding, and then swap it out for a longer chain on the rear sprocket for trail riding. It's a super fun little ripper, with supposedly a top speed of 55. And of course, it's for sale. So get in touch if it strikes your fancy.
