Franks Racing (SA) has closed.

I'm sure most of you know of "FRANKS RACING" or have at least seen his billet parts on a fair few fighters over the years, well Kelvin has had to give it away due to health issues.

He hasn't been in his shop for a fair while now due to a knee reconstruction well 2 because they fucked up the first with a dodgy French joint which has had over 4000 removed/recalled worldwide but still A-ok for the aussies to use!

So he has now officially closed up and sold all his equipment so if you have any of his bits they are now irreplaceable.

sounds like the bloke might have been better off making his own instead of the french shit .

LOL! yeah Kelvin ended up making his own fully adjustable billet walking sticks to suit his 6ft+ frame after he bent a couple of standard alloy ones!

The french knee joint was a grade of titanium that has a habit or creating heat when it comes into contact with blood which causes inflammation so after 12 months of physio he was no better than before the op, trouble is the doctors know all about this but wait the year before they take it out just in case it settles down as some people have no probs with them, not a good thing to make a 80+y/o go through 2 reconstructions in just over year.

Thats fucked !

Well fuck hey that's shit news his products were great and he awesome service too

His contribution to the Aussie motorcycle scene will be missed.

Genuine good bloke who made good stuff.
