From a dirty desk clean beauty is born, and from a clean desk raw and rough function is brought to life. My life changes daily and my desk is it’s reflection.

AMA Adds 450cc Singles Spec Class for 2010... Possibly.

RSD's Yamaha 450 SuperSingle

Here at Roland Sands Design we always knew the 450 SuperSingle was an undiscovered monster. And now it appears as the AMA has caught on to the advantages of the motorcross/race-bike conversion.

The AMA announced at Laguna Seca that they may introduce a 450cc Singles Spec Class for the next season. While the particulars are still being worked out, RSD has long known that it was only a matter of time before they made their way into the mainstream. For more information on our 450s please visit rolandsands.com/450.html.

Cycle News announced the addition in their most recent issue. Click the image below in order to see it in a larger format.

Moto Foot Pegs

Inspired by our passion for motocross styling, we decided to bring a little dirt to the road. Intentionally designed with a featherweight, ventilated body and aggressive tooth pattern for performance and grip, these pegs make sure you foot won’t slide off the peg during aggressive riding. While we don’t recommend riding in the dirt, we think it’s the most fun you can have on two wheels with your pants on.
