• NOTICE: The owner of this website and GTMotoCycles.com completely lost his home on the morning of January 8th in the L.A. Wildfire Storm. Most of his neighborhood is gone, and a few friends were killed along with their pets. The GTM SHOP and STORE are functioning normally, but we DEMAND EXTREME PATIENCE on orders as we are a SMALL business and Todd usually has his hands on nearly every order before it goes out. You can find more info on a post named L.A. Wildfires in the USA section. Our heart and best go out to everyone effected in this horrific disaster.

Todd is safe, but unfortunately his house is a total loss. He has insurance coverage so hopefully he will recover. Shop is far enough away in Orange County so all is good there.

Devastating news.
My wife and I stayed with Todd when we rented one of his Ride Malibu bikes, a beautiful property in a stunning location.
Glad to hear that he is safe.
Our thoughts are with all that have lost so much.
 
Glad to hear he's safe physically but hope he's not feeling too devastated about the loss of all the memories he must have collected in that place! I know I would ...

Extending that thought to any other members in the area.
 
Thanks for the outpouring of direct emails, I’m overwhelmed and cannot reply to them all. Though losing most of my personal belongings, only a handful of things were lost that cannot be replaced, including some inventory. Most of current pending order products are safe, as I know that will selfishly be the next question. Be patient, as I have no idea when I can get home to start digging through the ashes and taking next steps. I will be buried in paperwork and phone calls. The place I got to call home for nearly 15 years, will be forever scarred. People and pets that I considered friends, were lost in my area that have not yet been reported.
 
Todd, when it is safe to.go back to your place and the roads are open, can any of us lend a hand? Rakes, shovels, pry bars, screen frames for sifting ash, wheelbarrows. Battery operated saws. Generators. Food, water, buckets to poop in. Lighting. And cots to sleep on.
You will know better than anybody what you need and when you need it. Keep us posted.
Damn sad work. I had better bring some whiskey.
