On the Pipe





I have known Bill and McGoo for around 20 years now and to say these guys are thee shit is a complete understatement. 

Since Forming Biltwell the guys have been great supporters of what I have done as a biker and editor, as well as being all over the Rum Runner Racing program. Anytime we need something, BAM! its there the next day wether its parts, support, or a few drankin' buddies.

This week we needed an exhaust and guess what we got? a Killer DIY kit...

It's good to have people you can count on all the time, everytime. Thanks guys!
