A front

Riding a motorcycle has become as much a reflection of individualism as it has a symbol of freedom. There’s nothing quite like screaming down the road on a bike that is distinctly yours. One of the best ways to customize your bike is using quality, machined parts that fit. Not every biker, however, wants the bar and shield emblazoned all over his or her rides. Too many times we bought aftermarket parts that don’t fit worth a damn. Isn’t there a manufacturer out there who makes quality parts that will bolt right to your stock bike without cutting or drilling? What if you ride a metric bike or a custom ground up build? Where do you turn to find quality parts that fit?

A Bullets

Look no further; Aeromach has exactly what you need.

A Grinder

Richard Fouhy, Aeromach’s owner, started manufacturing by making parts for M-1 tanks and space shuttle components. When the aerospace industry went bust, he constructed parts for his own ride, and the company has been growing ever since. Just like so many American entrepreneurs today, Richard took what he knew and expanded to manufacture a quality product that was recognized immediately by the consumer.

A mirrors

Richard’s company started to make its mark by attacking the tricky mirror problems Harley’s are famous for; you can’t see very clearly in them when actually riding down the road. Aeromach’s design team created a line of mirrors that are not only incredibly sharp to look at, but damnit, you can see out of them. With vibration reduced by 40%, Aeromach is sure you will be satisfied, not only with the look and finish, but also with the fit, installation and performance.

A Shop

Mirrors aren’t the only parts Aeromach specializes in. They produce axle covers, risers, bars, conches, pegs, grips, and especially badass hand levers. Most importantly, these parts will fit on just about any bike. That’s how good the design team is and how much research goes into every component.

A tool cutters

How can you be sure the parts have been tested and will still work on your older bike or big displacement motors? Well, Aeromach leaves no stone unturned. They test each product for extended periods aboard Richard’s old Shovelhead or one of the Company’s Big Inch bikes. They test each component at speeds between 40-70 mph, which is the most active riding curve most of us enjoy on a regular basis. Many of us here at Bikernet ride a bit faster than that, unless we are traveling in a pack behind The slow as a slug Big Guy. He likes to rumble along a little slower in his old age.

That’s bullshit, but I won’t go into it here. Meet you on the Bonneville Salt Flats this summer, Johnny. We’ll see who goes faster.--Bandit
