How we got invited to the US

In 2001 John Williamson of RMD (UK) was running FloTec on his drag team Harleys, and wanted to introduce them to his US colleagues, in particular Tom Pirone of Total Performance Motors. On his stand happened to be Dave Perewitz, with the first DayTec Right-Side-Drive frame, built to take Bert Baker’s new RSD transmission. It was a meeting of like minds… “Indy 2001.. We attended the Powersport dealer show in Indianapolis this year, and are pleased to appoint two more US dealers, Perewitz and Total Performance Engineering. This is in addition to Paul Yaffe Originals. Details of their excellent products can be obtained directly at the addresses below. Or hit the dealers page and enter their websites directly. Dave Perewitz turned a few heads by fitting a Flo-Tec and Mega Horn to his latest Right-Hand-Drive bike, right there on the Total Performance stand. Apparently not many of his colleagues have seen him with a spanner in his hand for a while. Dave Perewitz’ dry assembly of his rolling chassis kit. Only $14k (and a bit), including Baker 5 or 6 speed Right-Hand Drive, and a hot 107″ Total Performance Motor, with Radial ‘Flo-Tec’ Air Intake System and show-polished Mega Horn.Thanks very much to Tom Pirone of TP Engineering for the outstanding hospitality during the show, and Dave Perewitz for such enthusiasm and support for the Flo-Tec system. Some of the Flo-Tec range will be viewable in the Perewitz trailer, and on Total Performance motors at Daytona Bike Week. Howard Kelly, editor of Hot Bike Magazine, is fitting Flo-Tec to his Dyna, and tells us that he’ll be running a feature on the fitting and performance of the System. We’ll post news here when the article appears. Ace motor builder Kendall Johnston, of Headquarters USA, will be fitting Flo-Tec to a 113″ S&S, and we’ll run the results of his product evaluation.” Dashing Dave’s comment on the Flo-Tec “ I haven’t seen anything for quite a while that got me so excited”. Dave, you should get out more often….!
