AP MotoArts and CycleMall Motorsports announce joint venture.

For the better part of a decade, two Southern California performance motorcycle shops have squared off against each other on the WSMC, CVMA, AFM, MWGP and WERA race grids; the red, black and white of CycleMall versus the blue and yellow of AP MotoArts.

Now, Tige Daane of CycleMall and Andy Palmer of AP MotoArts are teaming up. This alliance brings two successful and forward-thinking motorcycle development programs together in one powerful, new joint venture. The new endeavor is called, simply, MotoShop.

“I have always said that competition brings out the best in us. Over the years, Tige and the CycleMall team have pushed me to continually up my game” said Andy Palmer, “I am looking forward to seeing what we can do together.”

Tige’s goals are pretty simple: “Having Andy around is bringing the fun back into building fast bikes.”

With strong industry relationships, extensive experience and a deep understanding of what riders need, one thing is certain: this partnership will be good for racers and the sport of motorcycle racing.
