Motorcycle Products

The following companies either make a product or provide a service that helps us to race. We use these products because they WORK, not because the company sponsors us!

SAMnet Racing will not endorse a product that we don't believe in.  We would rather pay for a superior product, than use an inferior product that we get for free.  This is why we generally solicit sponsorship only from those companies that we have already used (and in some cases, abused :-)

Let's face it - racing is hard on equipment.  We use these products in a way that far exceeds what the average rider will do.  Our feedback to the companies helps them to continually improve their product and ensure that it will perform properly on the street.

Please consider these companies when it comes time for you to make a purchase. They make great products and they help support the motorcycle industry.
Please support them!

Also, if you have any questions about any of the products you see listed here, feel free to e-mail us and we'll discuss them. Thanks, SAMnet Racing

 

BRAKE PADS, ROTORS, ETC

EBC Brakes

Sharkskinz Bodywork is definitely the "cream of the crop". I have worked with several brands, and the Sharkskinz stuff is simply better in all areas.

So far, I have tried the jacket liner and the gloves.  I am pleased to report that they both work beautifully. 

GLOVES
I was amazed at how warm they were.  They are the lightweight ones, and I have no problem reaching and using all the controls.  The wires run along the top of the hand, all the way to the end of each finger.  There are no wires on the palm side - so they really feel like normal gloves.

JACKET LINER
I have the quilted one, with a heated collar.  I ride in temps as low as 35 degrees wearing just a shirt, the vest, and a outer shell.  I really love the heated collar - the back of the neck is one spot that always gets cold (and makes the rest of your body feel cold), but not anymore!

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND BOTH OF THESE PRODUCTS!!!

Check out their site for all pricing, etc.

 

JET KITS, ADVANCERS, COVERS

LEATHERS

 

SYED Leathers
(800) 486-6635
11349 S. Orange Blossom Trail
Unit B101
Orlando, Florida 32837

NOTE: SAMnet Racing has tried several brands of leathers, and we are convinced that SYED suits are among the most comfortable and durable in the industry. Their prices are very reasonable, and they are very good at making your new leathers match your custom drawing (so far I have had 3 suits made, and each one looked and fit perfectly)!

ANOTHER GREAT COMPANY TO WORK WITH!

PAINTING and BODYWORK REPAIR

Specializes in restorations & custom body work. Complete painting & pinstriping.
Collision Experts
CUSTOM PAINTING BY TONY BORDONI - OWNER

OVER 17 YEARS EXPERIENCE

NOTE: Tony is great to work with, and he's one of the few non-motorcycle companies around that support motorcyclists. He's done bikes for street riders and racers, but I hope you will check him out for car repairs also. When a non-motorcycle company sponsors a motorcyclist, we should all try to support that company. So whether your getting a big ticket custom paint job, or just fixing a fender bender,
BODYWORKS Unlimited is the place to go!

 

KNEE SLIDERS / TOE SLIDERS

JMK SPECIALTIES
497 Woodlawn Ridge Road
Pembroke, NH 03275
(603) 224-8745

 

John Klucky's knee sliders and toe sliders are worn by some of the top riders (Pascal Picotte, Steve Crevier, Doug Polen, etc.). His unique hook and loop material is definitely the strongest I've ever seen. Never lose another knee or toe slider !!

 

 

SUSPENSION and FRAME ALIGNMENT

 

GMD Computrack
21 Blandin Ave.
Framingham, MA 01702
FAX: (508) 620-0157


NOTE: Peter Kates does all of our suspension work, and he has really helped us to reduce our lap times. Also, whenever we exceed the limits of traction and throw our bikes down the track, he is able to straighten everything out. Whether you want a new shock, want to revalve your current forks, or make sure everything is lined up properly, Peter can do it for you. Tell him SAMnet Racing sent you!

The Penguin Riding School operates at several tracks around the country. They teach you how to rider your bike faster and safer, and how to start racing. If you come up to the New Hampshire Speedway class, you may have me as one of your instructors. Check them out - it may save your life!

In the meantime, check out his page for lots of samples of his work.
