Westside Performance Cycle

We will be closed Saturday July 4th in observation of the holiday, AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, our assistant mechanic / sometimes secretary / keep Dave outta jail tech / merch model / and all around firecracker Allison Syler Birthday! Don’t worry though we will be working late all week to get the bikes we can out the door for the weekend! Be safe, Ride Hard, Don’t get drunk and blow your fingers off. HAPPY 4th OF JULY / ALLISON’S BIRTHDAY!

Got Mike Garofalo CVO Breakout Prostreet wrapped up. It came in with a chain rub on the tire. We worked with Vulcan to get the spacing right. While in the primary we found a failed hydraulic tensioner, and replaced it with a PSR manual tensioner. Mikes a big ass dude, but the clutch pull was ungodly rough, so we upgraded to a Rekluse slave cylinder to make it more manageable at break neck speeds.

This isn’t your average Breakout. Joey Wells over at Shop 67 built and tuned the 124” twin cam in this thing, and it’s an absolute monster. It’s hands down the quickest twin cam I’ve ever ridden, and smooth as a stock 110. I can’t speak highly enough about how well his parts work. If you want the most out of your Harley, he’s the dude to get your big bore kits and cams from. Words cannot describe the way this bike pulls.

Thanks Mike for continuing to choose to Ride with Westside.

Sorting out some spacing on a chain drive conversion done elsewhere. Found a bad primary tensioner as well (it happens, no one’s fault but time) replacing it with a manual adjuster so things stay put behind this 170+ hp monster.

We open back up tomorrow at 10am. Thank you all for your patience. This last week was incredible but David Dean is ready to get back to wrenching! Get ahold of us to book any service work, maintenance, tires, etc. that your Harley, Indian, Buell, or Victory may need. We are also having summer sales on all parts we offer and dropship!

It’s men’s mental health month, therapy isn’t “weak” if anything admitting you can’t do it alone, opening yourself up to new thought processes, and becoming the healed person you want to be is one of the bravest things a man can do. If you need help hit the link and start the path to becoming the best version of you that you can be. You owe it to yourself and your loved ones.

Paid for the whole tire, may as well use the whole thing!

Made it to the tail, what an epic road! Stayed last night in Knoxville, headed north today.

Stopped by A1 Cycles.net to do some unscheduled maintenance on Eric Bergdoll bike, Mike and crew rule. Seeing their cranks made first person was cool, as was chopping it up with them and checking out the top fuel bike and his softtail. Met the rest of the fellas at wheels thru time. Very cool place!

Day 2. Almost to the tail!

Ended the day in Harrisonburg, Va just shy of 600 miles. Vacation day 1 in the books
