Even More About Vech

2001 photo of my mother, Shirley Vechorik, a shop apprentice, Ricky Padgett, my father-in-law, Howard Carpenter, and I celebrate the arrival of my R32. It was a running bike, but it had a lot of problems I had to fix.

I worked on the transmission and engine of this 1942 BMW R75 war machine.

One of my more-famous restorations hung on a wall in a bar/restaurant named "Cheers" Starkville, Mississippi. It's a very realistic R60 (made from junk parts). The rider is a real female human skeleton. BMW R60 magazine road test BMW R27 magazine road test

A service I provide is sidecar setup and alignment. Visit my Steib Sidecar Store I've built six /2 conversions for sidecar use. My lastest conversion is here.

We have the largest vintage BMW motorcycle parts showroom in America.

I do a lot of oil slinger service on engines people send to me by United Parcel Service. Over the years, I've pulled down and cleaned the oil slingers of more than 700 engines.
