About Us |
|
|
Viets Performance specializes in performance upgrades for your modern sportbike, particularly if you're riding or racing at the track. Established in 2003, much of our business comes from repeat customers and we take customer satisfaction very seriously.
Our staff and advisors are AFM/AMA/WSMC roadracers, race school instructors and experienced riders. We use what we sell and pride ourselves on offering quality products from manufacturers we know and trust. We're direct dealers for most products, which means we deal directly with the manufacturer when placing orders or fielding technical questions.
Our goal is to offer a selection of key performance products (if you're looking for turn signals or chrome bar ends, we're not that kind of shop!) and help you make informed decisions about what to buy based on real world feedback and testing by racers and tuners. We work closely with manufacturers and provide them with your feedback regarding new products or improvements to current ones you'd like to see.
We're dedicated to bringing you high quality products that truly make a difference with great service at a competitive price. You will benefit from our volume purchasing agreements with specialty manufacturers, and we will bring you special purchases and/or closeouts whenever possible.
We attend most Keigwins @ TheTrack events, and we generally have representation at AFM and WSMC races in California. We will happily deliver your order to you at the racetrack if you're attending one of these events. Please email or call us at (866)766-5150 with any questions or requests.
