    It's EvilFordCoupe (Jason) that runs the joint. And Outlaw (Tyler) is his right hand man. Both guys are on here and Kontinentals at that.

    They are very legit. Cool bikes at a low $$$. Give 'em a call with any questions about details on the bikes and so on. Jason's even from the left coast.

    I know them personally and have been to their shop. Both
    the old small shop and the new bigger shop, that should
    tell you they are doing well because they make a quality
    product.

    Give them a call and talk to them. If you can take a trip
    to Austin and look around their shop they have open doors
    for hot rodders and bikers.

    If I didn't like 4 wheels so much, I would probably have a
    Flyrite myself.

    Evil Ford Coupe and Outlaw build some kick**** scooters, they are Kontinentals, that in itself should tell you they are a class act. Damn nice traditional rides at any price but they are very reasonably priced. Hopefully in next couple years I can buy one. [​IMG]

    Did I mention that they are lovers? Not that there is anything wrong with that.

    thanks a lot for your input guys. i really do appreciate it. i really want one of these, so i'll have to give them a call and see what they can come up with. to be honest, i don't know how to ride a motorcycle, but there's always a first time for everything.

    Harpoon, i'm sure you could do one hell of a job with it. i'll keep you in mind. thanks again.
     
  13. 133, I've been drooling over their bikes ever since I've know them. The quality is excellent and what you get for the money is unbelievable. I'll buy my next scooter from Flyrite.

    I had the pleasure of staying with them for 5 days (EvilFordCoupe and his lovely wife). They are really nice and their bikes are really good. The only thing stopping me from buying one is that I am a chickenshit. My wife said "go for it!" but I have cojones the size of BB's because of my lack of riding skills. But the bikes are gorgeous. You won't be sorry.

    The only flaw is that they seem to only use RevTech engines (which I personally don't like), but if you talk with them, I'm sure they can put a Optima, H&amp;L, Merch, S&amp;S or other engine in there. Then again, you may not have strong convictions about engines like I do.
    I've heard good things about their bikes however. You can get something a little bit different than the $30k choppers that all the accountants are fighting over. I definately like their style and options...and the fact that you can get into one for a fair price.

    Jason is as stand up as a************* could be. I have known him forever and he is one of the few people who trully makes his dreams a reality...

    And I am sure he'll tell you that the Revtechs are good motors, but get a bad rap because of their low cost and ease of availability. think of them as the small black chevy of the harley set.

    haha...funny cuz that's what I have in my Rambler....a 355 SBC.
    The only reasons the RevTechs get a bad rep in my book is: 1. they're Korean-made and 2. they've had some consistency/reliability issues
    It's really a moot point and I can argue the case till I'm blue in the face but in the end, it's just a personal preference. I have a buddy with a RevTech that runs really well...100" motor. It's strong and way fast.

    I'll just re-state that if I get another new bike, FlyRite will be one of the people I go to if I can have a different motor thrown in. It's a classic-type of style that is timeless and represents what riding a bike is about....having a bad-ass bike that hurls you through the wind.

    Jason's a great guy as already stated - I'm in line for one myself, and they actually offer several motor options...not just RevTech.

    Tyler's a pretty good kisser. [​IMG]

  29. Jason is a heck of af a guy. Any time I have a question or just want to tell them I'm diggin' what they're up to, he always responds promptly.

    The guy's at Flyrite are onto something. Cool, simple scoots for a reasonable buck. The only thing that'd be better is if you did it yourself.

    And man, that custom bike they did is****s. Only 20K too. Not too bad in the world of 75k cookie cutter customs.

    Travis, we gotta swap wifes! I've been riding since I was 12 until about 15 years ago when I sold my bike to paint a car I was working on. Met my wife about 3 years ago and she's down with the hot rods but everytime I look lustfully at a 2 wheeler she says "no motorcycles." And I really want a bike especially with gas prices hitting close to $2.40 in so cal.
