Oh So Close. I've been making Buell parts for 13 years now. Lost my shop in divorce & right when life starts getting better the shop I had commissioned to make my parts gets shut down. This didn't sit well with me especially when the guy who came to shut it down(croooked old fart) wanted to put his hands on the parts I was running at the time with the intention of tossing them! Whoa! That wasn't going to happen as far as I was concerned! I spent the weekend in jail for asualt for tossing the old man. This was a lamenting time for me as I knew time was working against me with the shop out of commission. Once out of jail I had less than 5 hours to get my stuff out of the shop. In the mean time I had orders to fill & no way to get them done. But Praise to the powers that be! The Buell Gods have come through for us all! I still have to wait till the first of the year but I found a place to do parts again! And I'm gonna just get back to what I do and get my own machine tools. It's been along time coming back! But I ain't dead yet! Billet2Race will go on! And I will continue to make some of the nicest Custom Buell parts at a great price! Lets all give a hardy Amen! to the Buell Gods! Have fun! Ride safe! And don't forget BILLET2RACE! And Thank You Bumpus Harley for your Sponsorship to BadWeb! |

Oh, in Yakima, home of Yakima Brewing Company and Bert Grant's Ales, isn't it just a $2 fine for tossing old guys out of machine shops. All the best. |

If'n y'all are out already, you didn't toss the old 'un far enough! Good luck for the future & the compliments of the season to you. I will watch your progress with interest. Chris C |

PHD, With all the Christmas goings on, we haven't had a chance to get everything up yet. It's first on the list when everyone gets back in town. We are excited to have B2R parts available for purchase on BW! We'll have information and pictures/prices on the Bumpus website. You can purchase directly from there. Dorothy, please let me know when you are up and running and ready to produce so we can have an official BW rollout! Can't wait!!!!! |
