Mahdavi is thinking about getting into bikes

[Jaimecbr900]

Very true. It wouldn't hurt to start working on bikes since the shop and pretty much 95% of the tools, materials, and overhead have already been established for years.

Shush Jerel.....grown folks talking here...... JP.

You're right though. It seems that since Arash, Sang, and I ride our bikes a lot to the shop people assumed we worked on them here for the public, so that's where I think the flood gate of questions have come from.

Like I said, we're already talking to several manufacturers to see how we can do this where it's a win-win for everybody. It wouldn't make any sense to do it unless we could offer something for people to come in and also make a little money.

We are thinking that installing tires, sprocket/chains, tune-ups, fluid changes, installing power commanders, some electrical work, maybe alarms, HID kit installs, fender eliminators and the like.....pretty much stuff like that, plus like I said the occassional big and wild project for those that dare like turbo charging and nitrous. Since most newer bikes are all fuel injected, then FI is not that much different than with a car....just at a smaller scale for the most part.

Like I said, my bike is obviously going to be one of the first guinea pigs for anything like that. So if yall see a bright red 900rr on the news being chased by some helicopter......it's only R&D.....

What tire lines are most popular right now? I've always used Batleaxes on my bike, so I don't have first hand exp. with anything else.

What other accessories and/or services do you guys think would be most popular for us bike guys?

What do you guys think about HID kits for bikes @ $200-250 INSTALLED? Is that too high or too low?

First of all, I'm really diggin' this idea. A lot of my friends have recently started buying bikes. It seems to be the best ways of transportation at the moment. About the HID prices, there already is an underground vendor who sells them for $130-$150. Installing them isn't a problem, so I personally think $200-$250 might be alittle too high for some individuals. Might want to throw some other bonus or something if you go with those prices, just a thought.

Thanks for the input. We definetly are hearing all of it.

I've already contacted our Hunter guy to find out what adaptors, if any, we would need for our balancer. We know our mounting machine is fine since we've done a few bike tires already. It's just getting the balancer to work with those wheel centers. But I'm sure it can be worked out. So that's not going to be a prob.

Keep the input coming. This is really helping so far.

+50 to everyone that has responded in this thread.....except Jerel....cause I'm racist..... JP...I'm even giving Jerel some reps....
