I recently had him lighten my flywheel and hubs. He's a short 40min drive from my house so it was really convenient for me. If you ever make it out to his place be sure to check out his drag motorcycle he built from hand. Truly one of a kind.

That thing is awesome. And he did, he built every part on it from scratch. I was impressed.

What did it run you to lighten your flywheel and hubs? Does the flywheel mod help a lot?

I would recommend giving him a call on pricing. I paid around $100 for the rear hubs on my 04. He said he charges a little more for earlier years since they are a little more work to machine down. For the flywheel he only charged me $50 but he said it was the last one he was going to do for that price [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I believe he said he was going to start charging $75 for the flywheel. Still not a bad deal...
One note on the flywheel, he only removes material from the flywheel itself and not the magnet casing. I have seen lightened flywheels from Mr. HP (Eric) who charges a bit more but he also removes a good amount of material from the outer magnet casing. I asked the Preacher about the casing and he said he doesn't like to touch it since it is very thin.

And yes, he is very particular and will only do it the way he does it. Nothing more, nothing less [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
And he really does not have any real set prices. I think they are kind of subjective on how he feels that day, and other variables...
