Just wanted to stop in and say hi.

I have been involved in the powersports industry for over 25 years

Started working at a Honda Suzuki Yamaha shop back in 1983.

Most recently I was the Parts Manager at Shreveport Harley-Davidson. They closed down in Feburary 2010 and I was laid off.

After I was laid off, people in my neighborhood started to bring me their ATV's and Motorcycles for repairs. After about 2 years of this, my landlord told me I could no longer work on projects from my house.

I decided to open up my own store / shop. I ended up leasing a 3600 square foot builing in South Shreveport and called it "Torque Center Powersports".

I am very knowledgeable in the area of Motorcycle and Atv Parts and Service. I am always willing to share the knowledge I have gained over the years with anyone that is willing to learn.

Thanks,

Todd Uebe

The lights are still on! I have more work than I can handle by my self.

Between walk in traffic, eBay and my website, I am selling a good bit of stuff.

Lots of air filters, carb kits, piston kits and shift levers. What ever I seem to hang on the wall sells.

Man that's awesome! I was thinking earlier that it'd be great to quit my job and start my own business doing something I enjoy, but I'm pretty much useless HA! I'm glad to hear it's working out well for ya

      2000 Honda 400EX Backfires
      By Trent Finnessey
      I’ve got a 2000 400ex with a dg slip on muffler, it came with he stock muffler on it but the previous owner had the dg in a box so I put it on. I’ve been riding it for the past month and a half and every time I let off it backfires, and the other day the backfires got way louder, 2x louder! I’m concerned that I may hurt my motor? Why does is backfire??? Thanks

      1999 Yamaha Big Bear 350 4x4 no spark
      By Kaz
      Troubleshooting a no spark issue, was running OK, maybe a little rich, turned it off, now no spark. I've checked/ohmed out the main key switch, the start/stop switch, neutral switch, brake switch - all good. It will crank the starter, but no spark with the starter or when I try the pull start. I've checked all fuses and diodes. Swapped battery. New plug. New coil. Swapped in a used CDI - no help. Traced, removed, cleaned, reattached all grounds. Removed things like my winch from the circuits to be sure a bad relay or something was dragging it down. When testing voltages, the orange wire going from the CDI to the ignition coil shows no/very low voltage-shouldn't it have 12V on it? Sometimes I get a very weak, intermittent glow on my spark tester, but not enough to fire the plug. I've checked continuity on just about all wires in the harness. Checked/cleaned/lubed w dielectric grease- all connections, redid a few that looked old/dirty. I've checked the stator resistances, all good, but have a stator and rectifier ordered anyway, will arrive Sunday. I verified that the rectifier has a voltage output back to charge the battery while cranking - 10.5-11V, low, but expected while starter is engaged. What else can I check as part of troubleshooting? I have a Haines service manual, but the 1999 350 4x4 seems to be an odd model, there isn't an exact electrical diagram for it, but found one for another year that has all the same number of wires and same color wires, so I've referenced that. Any hints, tips or advice would be appreciated! Thanks!

      '03 Honda Sporttrax 400EX Carb issue.
      By Dumass
      My name says it all. I have a '03 Honda Sporttrax 400EX with a new aftermarket carb on it that seems to be having issues. I can start it but it idles really rough and when I give it throttle it just kills the engine. I have tried adjusting the idle screw but to no avail. I am in the San Diego Ca area. 
      Any advice will be greatly appreciated. I would also like to get an owners manual for the thing too but can't seem to find a downloadable one.
