Your OEM-Cycle, I have bought some stuff from you on ebay. Great service...by the way, your building is too small, or it will be soon.  :-D

Thanks!
I always tell my guys to try and give the kind of service we would like to receive when we buy something.
Your right, the shop will be too small very soon.
Unfortunately it's the biggest the city would let us build  :x
On a positive note, it is tall enough for a second floor and we are building it with the foundation and supports already in place as my goal is to have the 2nd floor done within a year.
After we fill it up we will think about buying an old saw mill and expanding  :-D

Looks great. Glad you are able to do this. I wish I could afford to build like this and get my own business started. Don't know what it would be but I do know I'd be building all kinds of stuff lol.

I've bought a lot of parts off you on ebay and will continue to. I've always liked the great service with fast replies to my questions. Thanks and Good luck.

It's hard to keep a drivers license riding a 2 stroke dirt bike on the street.  If you drive within the law they are VERY boring.

Hello.
I really appreciate it.
I started this business 9 years ago and unfortunately I didn't know what I was doing so it took a few years to figure out what I wanted to do. Once I got it rolling I stayed with my day job for 5 years until I had a good amount of inventory to sell.
Mean while I invested everything I made back into the business.
It was really hard because of all the new bikes that were tempting me to buy them :-D
Anyway, it's been a long road to this point as I didn't have a nice little nest egg to start with.....
If you ever need anything from me again, PM me through KX Riders, tell me what items you need and I'll see how sharp my pencil can go  :-)
Just check the inventory first because if you don't see it in my store, chances are I don't have it.
Thanks again!

Yes, once I finish all of the second floor later in the summer.
Until then I will have to keep all my 48' shipping containers  :-D

 :-o
 You must be a whiz at keeping track of all that stuff Blaster!  I have a hard time keeping track of whats in my 1 1/2 car
 (well supposed to be able to get a car in) Garage.   
 
  How do you keep that size of inventory straight? 
It is good to know someone out there is still able to make a living doing something they love, you have my respect!
  Take Care and may you be swamped in 2011! :-D
