Never had the pleasure of meeting him in person, but had some great calls and text sessions. He will be remembered fondly by many.

RIP Rob.

He was one of the guys that I admired his skills in doing the mods he's done is mind blowing. RIP .

He has been doing my two life long friends projects for years, He and my friend were pretty close.
His bikes were ...Fast. My friends 375cc 250R w Custom ported ESR cylinder, makes over 70+ h.p...Its 8 bike lengths faster than my 385cc Dune/MX ported Banshee, and speedwise equal to a 400cc Chettah Power-valved Banshee!! THATS A DAMN FAST 3WHEELER.
He told my friend it's one of the fastest three-wheeler 250R builds he's ever built and told him to please be careful.
I ridden it it's a White knuckle ride no doubt about it.
Then he custom built my friends 86 Tecate to 380 cc's, with a custom KX cylinder build then had some technical difficulties..lol then brought it down to I think 360cc..such a cool bike, and damn fast too....


He has been working on 3 of my friends projects such as a reversed cylinder ( carbs in front) 521cc Banshee with a dry clutch,..lol Just because, Why not! ���� Also a custom ported Big bore, 465cc 79 RD400 Daytona Special w Reshaped DG heads , that I sold my friend. Just Cool fun builds.

he seemed to think he could do a 350 plus CC Big bore kit with power valves on my tri Z I did not pull the trigger I should have that would have been fun hopefully his knowledge is passed on to some and won't be lost ��

I always loved his Instagram stuff. The builds were not only inspirational, but were works of art. He will be missed in the community.
