We Can Make Anything Go Faster

Sam Henderson's 1991 Harley Davidson Sportster can cover one-quarter mile in 12.9 seconds at 105 mph. It won Motorcycle class at the Houston Drags.

If you want to beat Sam's time, talk to Sam, he can help.

Sam is a master mechanic with Harley Davidson tickets and enough talent to take apart, repair and put back together most any machine with two wheels and way too much power.

Sam operates Eyecandy Custom Cycles in Smithers. He does the everyday repairs to street and trail bikes but his passion is building motorcycles from the ground up. He will measure your inseam and arm length and order a custom frame that fits you perfectly. Then he adds an S&S engine, a custom transmission and driveline. Belt or chain drive - your choice. How about a hand-built wiring harness that is hidden from view?

You might have to mortgage the family Rolls Royce but as long as you have $20,000 to $60,000 in your chequing account, Sam can build the bike of your dreams. Hand-built with a custom paint job - this bike is a work of art that you can drive to the grocery store.

Sam has been working on motorcycles since he was a teen but has been a pro mechanic since 1987.
