Just an FYI about Fred. Hes a man of few words....when it comes to email and posting on any web site. He prefers you call him and ask away. If you didnt know this you would think hes kind of a jerk based on his very very short written responses.
When you get him on the phone, have plenty of time to talk, he'll tell you everything about his products, the numbers, what he's done to other bikes, how much power he makes on what mods... an hour may not be enough time. He's a really nice dude though.
Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.
