I called Sputhe engineering to see if I could pick up a stabilizer kit directly from them (they are about 1/2 hour away ) and he said come on up.A very cool experience meeting a guy with so much knowledge and custom bikes and projects under his belt. He invited me into his shop for the grand tour and talked bikes for an hour and a half. I got the kit for a good cash deal too. He said he doesn't mind if people want to come up and pick up parts so if you're in nor cal and after a Sputhe kit it's well worth the trip.

 

Rad! Where's he out of?

 

just north of Auburn

 

I heard he was a good guy and like you said, he knows his stuff. I'm thinkin about running up there too. Report back on how the bike feels after installed

 

Word.

 

I'm about 45 minutes away from where he is. Will be stopping by when I'm ready to buy his products

 

Sad news, if indeed true, according to faceoff, at Accurate-Engineering, Alan Sputhe has passed away. RIP Alan

 

?!

 

R.I.P. Alan Sputhe.

I've bought things from him and I've talked to him a lot in the past. He was cutting-edge back in the 90's.

His cylinders, low tension rings and special heads were top-notch.

He even made and sold a 60-degree proprietary motor.

The Grim Reaper finds us all eventually.
