There was a company out in California I used to use for porting, pipes, carbs etc.. called Klemm Research. This was back in the late Eighties. Now that I am getting back into the Quads I was wondering if anyone has heard of this company? Are they still in business or am I just getting to old? I was very poleased with their service and would like to use them again. Can't find them on the internet. Any help would be appreciated.

Hey,
I'm not sure if this is the same place, but I had some work done to a 1996 seadooHX about 5 years ago. A guy named Harry Klemm owns or runs a place called GROUPK. They were very big in jetski's then. I know this company is still around but not sure if they work on quads.

Also, porting and polishing is the kind of work he performed for me and it was in Arizona.

i have heard of the company before.

i have no idea what has happened to them. it seems like they dropped off the radar back in the late 80's....

a better place to ask would be 3wheelers.org, or some other site dealing with trikes. they tend to watch trike-related things very very closely.

sorry i couldn't be of more help, but i honestly have not heard anything new about Klemm Research.

It was Harry Klemm!! That is very helpful!!! That man could make a quad fly!! I appreciate the help guys!! I had no idea where to start!! I was actually on the cover of the August 1988 issue of 3and4 wheel action riding a bike prepped by him at a Mickey Thompson event in Pasadena Ca. Thnaks again I now have a starting point.

They specialize in Watercraft now, and are located in Fort Mojove, Az. Here is a link to their web page GroupK (http://www.groupk.com/index.html)
