Arai60 gets kudos in MCN!
19 Feb 2009 08:06
Our own Arai60 got some real high praise in the latest issue of Motorcycle Consumer News. The Reader's Rides feature article in the March 2009 issue was Danny Coe's 1991 Honda NT650 Hawk. This obscure model was a small v-twin and Coe spent a BUCKET of money trying to make a 37hp bike faster, lighter and better looking. He chose Greg Sabatini, owner of Autowerks in Rowlett TX AKA Arai60 as his painter of choice. Quote from article:
... The bodywork retains the stock front fender, seat and tank and original graphics, but all have been painted black, matching the magnesium wheels. All of the painting was done by Greg Sabatini of AUTOWERKS in Rowlett TX. Greg, a talented painter, also paints hemets and, in my opinionhis craftsmanship and creativity are unrivaled.
Unquote.
Greg's shop info is listed in the LINKS section of our website, www.wgcarbs.com - We ONLY link to reputable and quality businesses.

Hi Mcdroid,
Sorry dude but Arai60 ain't no curmudgeon! He ain't old enough to achieve that status, positive or negative.
He's a Nihilist through and through.:woohoo:
Anyway, Arai before you dismiss my morals, I've got to say Congratulations! And How much to paint my helmut?
Good on Ya Dude!
