WE DON'T JUST SELL PARTS. WE BUILD THEM.
Every harness, every cage, every beadlock wheel that leaves our shop in North Las Vegas was designed by riders who actually depend on the same gear.
We started making Honda 50 hop-up parts in 2005 out of a passion for building faster, stronger, better. Twenty years later, that same obsession drives everything we do — from CNC-machined billet aluminum wheels to hand-welded roll cages built for desert racing.
Five CNC machines. Mills. Lathes. Laser cutters. Tube notchers. A full fabrication floor that builds anything from small parts to complete off-road race cars. This isn't a warehouse with a logo — it's a working shop with welders, machinists, and riders who test what they build.
HAVING KIDS IS WHAT GAVE ME THE INTEREST IN DEVELOPING THESE PRODUCTS. MY SON WAS 2 WEEKS OLD THE FIRST TIME HE WAS AT THE TRACK WATCHING DAD RACE.
WHERE IT STARTED
50 Caliber Racing began as a Honda 50 hop-up company. Big bore kits, extended swingarms, performance pipes — the kind of parts that turned a kid's minibike into a real machine. What started as a garage passion became an online business, building on years of selling parts online since 1999 through our sister company ScooterX.
FROM SAND RAILS TO UTV CAGES
The build addiction grew. By 2006 we were fabricating full sand rails. By 2008, the UTV market was exploding and we jumped in, building custom roll cages for the first generation of Polaris RZRs. The same welding skills and fabrication knowledge that went into race cars now went into cages, bumpers, and chassis components for UTVs.
PROVING IT ON THE TRACK
We didn't just build parts and hope they worked. Richard raced the WORCS (World Off-Road Championship Series) for six straight years. His daughter raced WORCS too. When your own family is strapped into the gear at race speed, you build it differently. You build it like their life depends on it — because it does.
UTV WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP — 2ND PLACE
In the first ever UTV World Championship race, Richard finished 2nd out of 165 drivers. Not a brand ambassador. Not a sponsored rider with a factory team. A parts manufacturer who builds his own gear and races it against the best.

10 YEARS AT UTV TAKEOVER
For the past decade, 50 Caliber Racing has been a fixture at UTV Takeover — competing in big air, wheelie competitions, and short course races. In 2025 at Winchester Bay, Richard set the current record for the longest wheelie in a UTV at 322 feet. All his kids ride. The dunes are the family's playground. The bump seats and booster seats in the catalog exist because Richard needed them for his own children before he ever sold one.
