The AIMExpo Industry Party powered by Turn 14 Distribution is an excellent forum for friends old and new after a busy day on the show floor.

The e-bike market is growing fast. This additional category within powersports is set to grow from $49.7 billion in 2022 to $80.6 billion by 2027. To help support this growth and integration into the powersports industry, AIMExpo will have two e-bike indoor demo tracks, one for Turn 14 Distribution’s brands, and one for other participating companies!

Our industry thrives on competition and is built on having a good time – the SUPER73 Industry E-Bike Throwdown is going to be the perfect combination for all-out fun. Dealers, exhibitors, media, and industry leaders will all be racing for industry-wide bragging rights in the final race.

The Throwdown will take place on the AIMExpo indoor e-Bike track and will consist of four classes: Dealers, Exhibitors, Media and a surprise class that will be announced closer to race night. Each class will race in brackets with the top rider in each race advancing to the next round, ultimately competing in a winner-take-all Throwdown.  E-bicycles will be provided to ensure an equal playing field – riders only need to bring their competitive spirit and skills to conquer.

RIDER REGISTRATION

Made in America is an area solely dedicated to celebrating the ingenuity of American Companies.

The custom segment of motorcycling is more popular than ever and an influential category within the industry. The 2 Wheel Custom Showcase will highlight ten of the country’s best custom builders showing off of their latest custom builds curated by Kevin Dunworth of Dunworth Machines.

About the Builders

David Chang is the founder of CROIG, also known as @caferacersofinstagram, a page with over 1 million followers that features custom motorcycle builds and events within the motorcycle community. When he’s not traveling around the world on two wheels, David can be found at the Moto Collective in Northeast Minneapolis, where he is always working on projects with his team of friends.
His latest projects include Build for Good, a campaign that invites builders from the community to create a one-of-a-kind motorcycle that is raffled away with proceeds to go directly to provide clean water for those in need, and the Wango Tango Show, a custom Honda Gold Wing show that will be taking place in Sturgis during The Rally.

Larry Curik has been involved with motorcycles for a very long time. At an early age, he was fascinated with all things mechanical and how they function. His grandfather was a blacksmith, and as a child Curik was able to spend countless hours in the shop with him. Larry sought out the best in every field: engine builders, TIG welders, coaches for building and painting experts, and manual machine-shop craftsmen. Due to his inquisitive nature, he was able to apprentice with the best and was involved with several restorations for museums.
Larry has built motorcycles of all types: café racers, drag bikes, motocross bikes, choppers and bobbers, and a Baja 1000 bike. He pulls knowledge from all kinds of projects and incorporates them in the design and execution of his builds.

Kacey Elkins is the owner of Krossover Customs, a paint and fabrication shop in Lancaster, Kentucky. Kacey grew up with one hand gripping a paint gun and the other gripping a motorcycle throttle. If he wasn’t riding his dirt bike, he was in his family’s body shop helping all he could. Growing up this way fueled his love of all things two- and four-wheeled. “I started painting as soon as I could hold up a paint gun and haven’t stopped,” Kacey said. With an eye for detail and a style of his own, Kacey has built a name in the automotive and motorcycle industry synonymous with high quality and clean designs that show in his beautiful paint work and custom motorcycle builds.

Roy Martin was born and raised in Denver, Colorado. He is a self-taught welder and fabricator with over 35 years in the custom car scene, and 20 years building custom motorcycles. In 1994, Roys Toys Customs was opened as a family-run business.
Roy builds motorcycles, his daughter Nikki is the COO of the company and a custom builder, and his son Anthony is an apprentice builder. Their builds have been part of the Harley-Davidson Museum Pro Invitational, AIMExpo, and the Progressive IMS show circuit. They were invited to participate in the ROT Rally’s Father/Daughter Build-Off and veteran build show. Roy and Nikki were mentors for Motorcycle Missions’ Build 13, the State Farm 100th anniversary bike.
Right out of high school, Roy started working at a local machine shop. After 21 years at the machine shop, Roy decided to follow his childhood dream of becoming a police officer. He put himself through night college, working at the machine shop during the day, and working on his passion of cars and motorcycles during any free time. At the age of 40, Roy was hired by a local law enforcement agency and is currently a lieutenant. Roy enjoys maintaining the same routine – police work during the day and Roys Toys Customs at night.

Mike Rabideau, owner of Majik Mike’s Designs, started building bikes over 20 years ago. Originally from Racine, Wisconsin, Rabideau now resides in Las Vegas. Rabideau is a veteran of several build-offs in the U.S., including Born Free, Cyclesource In Motion Show, and several Hot Bike Tours.

The 4 Wheel Showcase is dedicated to showing the progression of the 4 wheel segment in powersports with curated units provided by the industry’s leading manufacturers. As this category grows, more and more OEMs and aftermarket companies are building vehicles and parts to cater to 4 wheel customers. Here you’ll find unique vehicles built to satisfy the ever evolving 4 wheel customer.
