    Went out lookin 40 miles up the lake for a New motorcycle shop that opened 54 days ago.
    Its called RDM Cycles.
    www.rebeldreamers.com
    The name of the Machine shop down the road that they have that has been in business for a while is Reble Dreamere Machine Shop. They have a full CNC machine.
    Found out that this Machine shop is home of Cadillac John and Badger .
    Cadillac John and badger is the teachers of Wolfgang Grasser.
    Met SlowJim today who is Badgers brother at RDM cycles.

    They had a 110cu motor that they built the cased, flywheel, heads and all for.
    If I remember correctly the 110cu motor produced 170hp.

    I was told to come back Monday to see CAdillac John, I've got a friend aligned up for a job interview here.
    Instead of buying a motor, I might talk to them about building a motor.
    I need to talk prices oh.

    Cadillac John and Badger is know for their work building engines. I mean the whole engine parts...
    CAses, flywheel, heads and all.
    And they have a record bike for the 6 minute drag bike.

    They race it at the Texas Mile.

    About 3 times a year in Goliad, Texas where there's a airstrip. They shut down the air strip and have drag races. They had a couple women to fly in and ride a couple hybusas over 250 mph from what I've heard.
    This is suppose to be pretty big in Texas
    TEXAS MILE // OFFICIAL SITE // 3 DAYS, 1 MILE: NO SPEED LIMIT

    Here is their drag bike. Look at the heads and all.....
    This is the 110cu motor with 170hp

    Did you shoot a Dear................ Bang..........;)

    Tryin to post some good info.

    these dudes used to be in South Houston near Galveston years ago.

    If you have a old bike and the part is broke, They will machine it.
    I've heard about these guys for years. But never went down there.
    Just called a friend and asked him if he knows they are up here, and he didn't.
    He is friends with them from years ago.
