Saying Performance Concepts produces some of the most competitive engine work available anywhere is a matter of record. In fact, our Land Speed engine work on a naturally aspirated 1000cc engine officially records: 223.705 MPH @ Bonneville and 220.701 MPH @ El Mirage. At current and holding, those records represent what is known as the fastest naturally aspirated 1000 cc bike, EVER - that's a distinction no other builder anywhere, can either claim or prove. Results are why other shops, engine builders, race teams and privateers choose and rely on Performance Concepts. Race after race, our Supersport and Production legal cylinder heads regularly beat our competitors. From coast to coast, our cylinder heads and engines populate and dominate multiple grids at national and regional series.

Never ripped the motor past 12 grand and got a new record at 198 mph. That motor has some serious midrange grunt. Thanks again!
I had very good equipment and advice from people with much more experience in racing than I have. Every podium finish and checkered flag I saw reminded me that I owe a lot of thanks to you (Performance Concepts) and Mike Riddle for putting a competitive engine in my hands.
1st 250 Superbike, 1st 350 Production, 1st 500 Twins, 1st Formula 3. Thanks for the 4 time championship winning motor.
