  7. Monster now with Yamaha :)

    also think about it from monster's side of it.

    now they are sponsoring edwards and JT, who are more or less mid to front pack runners every weekend. why would you go back to a guy who was a backrunner.

    tv cameras only show the action up front. hopper being in back means little to none airtime for showing off the monster brand.

    sure let him test with yamaha, but yamaha has got a large role in this as well. i just dont see them dropping either of them for a known backmarker...

    iron pony has pretty much got ohio covered. i know people who come from dayton just to visit IP and maybe buy some gear. it would take another big company from out of state just to compete with Iron Pony IMO.

    DTM istn' that big...and by the time they grow to compete IP will have already bought them out.

    hopper left suzuki for more money with kawi and looked what happened... suzuki went from backrunner to now they are showing test times in top 5 even top 3. and hopper was still fighting for last place... sure he may be a good rider, but he certainly isn't a smart one.

    other riders are now reaping the rewards of his testing IMO.

    Guys and Gals.

    I am wanting to try and expand the motorcycle side of Dyno Tune. I believe I offer both a good value and a quality tune for the fuel injected bike owners. I would like to expand and I am not sure what direction to take. I know that I have gotten a number of pm's on here regarding carb tuning. I have to be honest that I have had very little exposure to carbs with both bikes and cars. Fuel Injection is what I know. I have a few questions I would like to ask.

    1. Is there a demand for tuning carb bikes in the columbus area?

    yes, there is I believe. although i may be looking to convert to FI, and i may be a big customer for you come next spring...

    2. What other services do you look for when looking for a shop?

    trust, quality, believe it or not friendliness and a smile. i hate the shops that are just grumpy ol' bastards. main reason i dont go to shops anymore, although i know a dyno is different than a dealer shop.

    3. Preventative maintenance? Repairs? Performance Upgrades?

    sure be neat to offer it. i know 35motorsports does stuff like this, but unfortunately they are in Indiana. maybe do things such as SS lines, install exhausts, PCIII or Bazzaz, and on the extreme spectrum start to bore out heads, and install bigger pistons etc...

    4. Are there any members on here that would want to team up with Dyno Tune and provide maintenance, repairs, and performance upgrades?

    im sure their would be some. are you looking for volunteers or part time hires?

    5. Are you happy with the exsisting shops in the Columbus area that offer the services I have mentioned?

    i cant say, never been...

    6. What could they do to improve?

    marketing, getting your name out there. i never knew about your place until i joined this forum. whether its going to QSL or various other bike shows handing out flyers, mid ohio supercycle weekend get a portable dyno up there, there was one a few years ago (was that you?), Iron Pony, are you accredited as a reputable dyno with Factory Pro, Dynotune, etc? obviously you dont want to waste your time or money with a commercial or newspaper ad that broadcasts to the general public.

    Please share your thoughts and ideas with me. I am interested in bringing someone in that can help grow my business and provide someone an opportunity to pursue their love for motorcycles.

    I was just joking with natedogg. I didn't take those pics. I have a few websites I like to keep to myself but natedogg had to go and give one away. Whodey, casper and a few others are in to photography. I'd like to get into it but I'd rather spend my money somewhere else, cameras are expensive.

    that site is a secret? sorry bud didn't mean to spoil it, i thought a lot of peeps knew about that site.
