Well, I just recieved an interesting flyer in the mail today, SMB "Grand Opening".

I would caution anyone to deal with this company. I had a verbal agreement with them, and came out on the short end to the tune of $1,000. Also, my buddy in KY was left in the same situation.
I pulled my motor apart to check the crank and was horrified to find the cartridge plate had not been touched, kinda hard to balance a crank without removeing the cartridge plate.. Anyway, just a head's up with this company.

I bought a case from Dustin over a year ago. He said it was in good shape and ready to use. In fact it was broke and only good as a boat anchor. I tried calling and never got a call back. I even made a trip to the shop, he was not there but I left phone numbers he could reach me at while I was in town. I have never heard back from him or saw my money refunded. I would be very careful in dealing with this shop.

r.porter: Let's see if you get a flyer in the mail. Funny how they think time will make you forget things. I have sent a response now, since they have found my address again, see if they can put a check in the mail now. I'm holding my breath! :confused:

OH, did you finally get the falicon? It showed up on my door and sit here for a week until I figured out it was supposed to go to you. That's another thin SBM said would not happen under any circumstances. :usa

Yes , Doug it did arrive. It sure looks so good I hate to hide it away in a case. It's going into one of the race bikes and will see the track with my other Timbo stroker. Now I just have to call Tim and see if he has finished the two heads I sent him.

I've helped someone else get their engines out of SBM. Dunnbandit - give me a call (877) 302-9288. Maybe I can assist when I'm down there next week!

Dustin was only in jail for a few weeks. But he IS a convicted felon.
