His Story: I started out working on cars as a kid with my dad. When i turned 18 i got my first bike, learned as i went with working on it but was intimidated to tear into it due to lack of knowledge on it!
I decided to attend M.M.I. in Phoenix, AZ., learned alot there!!
I have worked for several shops since graduation:
Eagle Rider Harley-Davidson Rentals
Arizona MotoSports
Cycle Gear
Super Bike Nation
Wynn PowerSports
just to name a few.
I have always had the drive to master everything I do, I was like a sponge absorbing people's knowledge! lol.
So as time went on and i gained the knowledge i needed and experience as well as the confidence to do what i do. I got tired of others profiting off my knowledge and skills, I was also tired of hearing about the reputations that "shops" have. So i did something about it! I went into business for myself, for the obvious reasons as well as to try and extinguish this horrible reputation that "shops" get. I am determined to prove to everyone that there actually are some "shops" left that are still around for the right reasons and not just to "MAXIMIZE PROFITS" and get greedy!
I am just starting out on my own, but eventually i will succeed in proving that people can once again trust atleast one shop here in OC!!
Shops and there owners tend to forget what bike owners are intrusting to them each and every time someone leaves a bike to get worked on..... "WITH THERE LIFE"... each and every time anyone drops a bike off you are in turn trusting someone with your life! I never forget that nor do i take advantage of it!
I treat each and every bike the same way wether its and oil change, safety check or major overhaul.....wether you spend $5.00 or $5,000, you will recieve the same tratment!
Sorry i am getting kinda deep with this but its a passion of mine and i realize what one mistake can do to someone's life and family!

For those that read all this.... Thanks for hearing me out ! (so to speak)

I'm thinking of powdercoating my wheels too when it's time to change the oem tires sometime this year. STI gold seems to be different depending on the model year and the difference between gold and bronze can be subtle sometimes so it's difficult to pick one without actual color samples. I'm considering to have mine done at Beach Cities Powdercoating in Gardena....pretty good reputation. Top Notch Motosports seems to be a good shop with some great deals too. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to see the result!

00v_Lucky · February 4th, 2010, 11:38 AM

Sho, what color are you planning to go with on your bike?

I was thinking about paint matching to thunder blue, but its too much blue imo.

Ryosen11 · February 4th, 2010, 12:50 PM

I'm thinking gold/bronze or silver to match our decals...or I might just leave them alone as I do like the overall contrast of our blue and black. I've thought about blue/blue combo too but I would paint the front fender black to give some contrast.

Decision making process is part of fun so take your time and enjoy!

Snake · February 4th, 2010, 01:38 PM

My vote is for Gold.

captlombardi · February 4th, 2010, 01:41 PM

man, i've had this idea in the works for my 2009 blue for a while now. i was thinking more along the lines of yamaha gold though sti gold is probably close. just waiting for those crappy IRC's to wear out!

mrlmd · February 4th, 2010, 02:38 PM

Before doing anything like that and picking out a color you may regret. Photoshop a good picture of the bike and play with the colors to see what it would look like, instead of waiting 'till it's all done and seeing it for the first time.

Betlog · February 4th, 2010, 03:52 PM

Are you sticking with Blue as your bike's body color? if so, I think white would look great!

Yea, I think I was jumping the gun on this. I will carefully decide on which tone of gold/bronze I want. I have a tendency of being impatient and doing things asap

But, thank you all for basically confirming my decision on the color. Betlog, I am actually thinking about going white

I will have to repaint one of my fairings and cowling anyways, might as well go all out.

CZroe · February 5th, 2010, 02:21 AM

I wonder if tey could hide my marred rims and powder coat them.

I'd say go to any local shop and at least get a free quote or advice.

b_eastep · February 6th, 2010, 12:17 PM

not a bad price on the powdercoat, but i have my own setup and when i was doing some work for other people i was cheaper.

Momaru · February 6th, 2010, 01:42 PM

FWIW, I did a color match for my rims on my '08 Blue through HPPowdercoating and have been very pleased with the outcome. Pics in my profile albums
