About
Us
Carl's Cycle Supply was formed in 1982 as and has been providing excellent
service to their customers ever since. Carl Olsen has been riding
and working on Harley Davidson Big Twins since before he graduated
from high school in 1971. He grew up restoring antique cars and tractors
with his father in North Dakota. Carl has an AA degree in advanced
machining and over ten years experience in machining, he also taught
vocational machine shop for six years.
In 1998 the shop out grew the hobby status and turned into a full
time job. Matt was raised in the shop and has quite a reputation for
knowledge on all facets for details of numerous different machines.
Some of Matt's accomplishments are the Smitty award at Davenport,
numerous restorations of lightweights, 45s, knuckleheads, and the
first ever AMCA Youth Coordinator. Carl and Matt not only build great
bikes, they ride them as well. They've ridden their restored bikes
to numerous A.M.C.A. road runs and antique meets. From local meets
that are only a couple of hundred miles away, to cross country trips
that sometimes log thousands of miles, these guys ride old bikes and
know what it takes to make them road worthy. Together they have restored
numerous complete, high point A.M.C.A. bikes.
They strive to make all of their restorations 95+ points on the 100
point AMCA scale, but if a customer so chooses they can modify and
/or customize his personal antique machine. All of the bikes that
the shop produces are updated internally using state of the art technology,
but maintain the charm and character of the original design.
