I will say that it was the one and only place to go back in the 70s 80s 90s-Grant really knew his sh*t. Hes OK but not the same guy he used to be....Dont expect great prices either. He also doesnt do repairs himself anymore- he may offer machining services-sent out to someone else. He is closed sunday and mondays and takes a few vacations here and there so always call 1st. He does stock NEW parts -no used parts. If he has to order something -well, good luck! You probably wont recieve it for a while. He waits till he has a large order sometimes. He will get you going again in a pinch otherwise...I rather just buy ebay nowadays- customer loyalty is something he expects tho.-I dont miss driving over there tho -Ill order online and save $$$ and gas. (Sorry Grant)

My pops built a number of ATCs with parts bought from Grant, but this was a while ago. With Palmetto motorsports so close to home that's where I go for my OEM replacements since I rather give them the business over saving a couple bucks online.

If you're looking for someone to work on the bike for you I hear good things about performance atv, I've never personally dealt with them but I met the guy who owns it and he seems pretty straight up.

My dad has taken all his old Atc's and atv's back in the 80's and 90's and even 2000's and used to go by all his work and man when I started riding at 5 my lt80 ripped for a lil 80 I love grants work,also if I recall civicfrk1 old blaster ripped one of the fastest blaster's iv seen that wasn't a massive build he would kinda keep up with a raptor 660 with bolt on's at the time.I wish he can build me a banshee motor I love his work I bet he'll do a amazing aggressive trail set up I bet. It's a shame he doesn't build bikes anymore, grant just sells parts now. Grant I miss your work and so does my dad just not to many builders that care and know's a 2 stroke... But anybody know a reptuible shop in Miami fl??? I miss grant and his mechanic work to me M.A.M is number 1!!!!!!!

Might be better to go to a "dyno" as opposed to a "gyno". In your case the latter might be better served!  Wink
