James Banke, started Banke Performance & Engineering in 1992 by machining and fabricating custom parts for local racers and riders. A graduate from Cal Poly with a degree in Industrial Technology, James had been racing vintage road races, motocross, and flat track in order to stay in touch with the needs of the various racing disciplines. As technology and time advanced, more effort was put into the development of products for both modern and vintage racing motorcycles. In late '97, James acquired his first Buell. It was apparent that the basic motorcycle was very good, but there was room ( okay, maybe a lot of room ) for improvement. This led to an entire line of products for the Buell, starting with the oil filler/dipstick assembly, progressing on to the shifter assembly and continuing with a couple of cosmetic items, as well as exciting new products for the Blast and Firebolt. Additionally, we are focusing on expanding our line of dirt-track performance parts, and we're working with CCM as an OEM supplier for their new dirt-trackers. We will continue to offer custom machining, welding and fabrication services. ( Got an old Norton that needs modern brakes? A Sportster that's got all the power, but no suspension? ) Our staff is proud of its accomplishments and will continue to offer only top quality, reliable and finely finished products.
