In addition to show winning restorations, we also designed, manufacture, and sell the CYCLE SAVER PAD®, which is a patented side stand support pad which allows motorcyclists to park on any type of soft terrain like grass, dirt, gravel, and broken or hot asphalt. With the CYCLE SAVER PAD® you can PARK YOUR BIKE ANYWHERE® without fear of having the side stand sink into the surface and letting the bike fall over. This can cost you thousands of dollars, and your insurance carrier may total your bike instead of trying to find the correct replacement parts and painting them to match.
 
     
     
 
Obsolete Parts Reproduction

VINTAGE MOTORCYCLE RESCUE®
is also engaged in the production of obsolete Honda parts for 1970's vintage motorcycles, including the HBC-1 Battery Cover, Honda Part No. 31532-292-010, which fits all Honda CB/CL350 models and some SL350 (electric start only) models from 1968 to 1976. We produce these the same way Honda did, using a CNC machined mold and an 80 ton injection molding machine to produce a high quality superior product. We use these battery covers on all of our show and restoration Honda 350's, and sell them worldwide to retailers and consumers. It will also fit any other motorcycle that uses a 12N12A-4A1 size battery. These items are sold on this site or on eBay. We also produce the Honda Magnetic Switch Cover, Part No. 36857-286-000, which fits all Honda 350/250 models with electric start.
 
     
     
 
Restoration Service

VINTAGE MOTORCYCLE RESCUE®
can restore everything from original patina street bikes up to Concours d'Elegance judged show winners. However, we do not perform routine service on motorcycles and for that reason our shop is not open to the public. No matter what your project, whether it's to restore a bike your father owned that's been sitting in the garage for 30 years, or to create a show winner, VINTAGE MOTORCYCLE RESCUE® is uniquely qualified to do the job.
